Emotions are a way of life, and for whatever reason, some of us have trouble expressing them properly. Largely, as men, we’re taught to mask our emotions, and push through in order to lead those that look to us for that sort of thing. Now, in 2020, we understand that’s unhealthy, but the remnants of that notion can still be found. Hailing from Las Vegas, native rapper, 88n8 is not one of those cases, as he leaves no stone unturned on his engaging new single, “Crying While I’m High.”

Produced by SpeakerBangerz and Sonobeats, almost immediately the production hits you and captivates you before 88n8 comes on and emphatically introduces himself to the record. Crooning about lost love and unchecked emotions, he pens an introspective record that finds him pondering over a woman that he used to love, citing various heartbreakers like her new boyfriend, a Xanax addiction and ultimately, a realization that he’s better off without her. Utilizing a stronghold over autotune, he infectiously establishes his voice on this song better than in previous tracks, making for an interesting listen from start to finish.

Take a listen to, “Crying While I’m High,” below and get familiar with 88n8.
