Joji Nitrous

88 Rising’s Joji quickly solidified himself as an exciting artist to watch, and with the release of his brand new album Joji, he has ensured that eyes will stay fixed upon his rise. Not only is he a talented melodist, but also possesses a refreshingly original ear for production. “NITROUS” captures that effectively, emerging as an early standout on Nectar thanks to the strangely lo-fi yet uptempo vibe.

With vocals that sound as if recorded through an old telephone speaker, “NITROUS” seems to have all the makings of a summer anthem, despite its autumnal release. Yet there’s a distance there, one that hints (albeit slightly) that not everything is as it appears to be. “Guess I’ve been awake thinking ’bout our fate, fighting two devils, blood in my toothpaste,” sings Joji. “Spit into the night, thought it would be nice / you just makе me nervous, you werе cold as ice.”

Lyrics

[Chorus]
Oh, understand, girl, I’m out of sight
To the other side, I don’t want no stripes
Got my insides loud like motorcycles
Girl, don’t notice it, I don’t notice it
And the love make me wanna sing, sing
And the high make me wanna sing, sing
And the pain make me wanna blink, blink
But I’m in a Rover, I won’t feel a thing

[Post-Chorus]
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey

[Verse]
Guess I’ve been awake thinking ’bout our fate
Fighting two devils, blood in my toothpaste
Spit into the night (Ooh), thought it would be nice (Ooh)
You just make me nervous, you were cold as ice (You’re cold)
I was in your town, drivin’ eighty miles
Do not even notice, do not even frown
And how could I deserve this? I’m never slowin’ down (Never slowin’ down)
Don’t love me at the surface, love me like it’s now (Love me, love me, love me, love me)

[Chorus]
Oh, understand, girl, I’m out of sight
To the other side, I don’t want no stripes
Got my insides loud like motorcycles
Girl, don’t notice it, I don’t notice it
And the love make me wanna sing, sing
And the high make me wanna sing, sing
And the pain make me wanna blink, blink
But I’m in a Rover, I won’t feel a thing
