The sound is distinctively NVU R MANI, but with an unusual progression – it’s somehow sharp and blurry at the same time. All of which emphasizes the song’s sophistication.

There is a real sense that he’s closer than ever to striking the perfect balance between all of these elements on “Ragdolls”.

All throughout his catalog NVU R MANI has established a series of recognizable vocal identifiers and signatures, between his mellifluous crooning, flurries of quasi-conversational lyrics, and rapping outbursts punctuating pockets of beat-driven space.
