H//PE Princess took the weird method of releasing their title monitor weeks earlier than the mini album dropped. Stolen was a repetitive however weirdly pleasant tackle retro hip-hop, however follow-up One Day reveals a brand new aspect to the group. For an act billed as a ‘hip-hop woman group,’ they’ve bought some strong vocalists on their roster.
One Day is a type of inspirational pop tracks meant to soundtrack H//PE Princess’s journey thus far. Unsurprisingly, its music video options previous clips from the survival present that shaped them. In the meantime, the tune indicators its optimistic vibe with loads of resounding drum fills and feel-good chanting. It’s proudly tacky in its uplift, and I admire that. We don’t hear songs like this fairly often in right this moment’s jaded pop market. Sure, it feels just like the soundtrack to a morning TV present or marketing campaign industrial, however there’s a spot for this uncomplicated sentiment. One Day portrays this vibe in addition to every other monitor. If I believed within the idea of a “responsible pleasure,” this might simply be a part of that listing.
