Dog Flaunts His ‘Good Boy’ Ways in Brand New Album

The album is the follow-up to his foremost album, “Monster,” released under Cleopatra Records. Production on Good Boy includes melodies primarily from Hottub Johny, with additional production from Yvncc, who frequently works with EDM acts Getter/Terror Reid and Noahmadethiss; singer and producer of the boyband Yards4le, who also engineered the entire album.

The fun title stems from Dog’s most vital personal project; the discipline of self.

“I picked Good Boy as a joke because that’s what people call their dogs(laughs), but there is some sincerity to it because I have been bettering myself and holding myself more accountable.”

The artist also taps into the emotions behind unloyal friendships. The first single released, “Who To Trust,” tells the story of Dog’s former ‘friend’ and frequent collaborator, Smoking Stogies. Dedicated fans can grasp the back-and-forth banter within the topic, a seemingly indirect but very direct approach to ending any hopes of a friendship.

BuYufu turns the symptoms of love into a soul-filled dance with “Side Effects May Include”

In “Side Effects May Include,” BuYufu has made the irrational symptoms of hopelessly falling in love playful and highly musical. Love’s a hell of a drug, and it has some weird side effects. Missed calls, dancing on the spot, and acting completely out of character. It’s a simple idea, but the track really brings it to life.

It’s written as a song for a 70s soul club performance, influenced by crossover soul, northern soul, Afro-Cuban soul, and Latin soul. Horns, strings, shuffle guitar, Latin percussion, Hammond organ, and an active drum break surround the song’s central feeling. The arrangement keeps the song feeling lively, but the vintage influence is very clear.

“Side Effects May Include,” has subtle callbacks for those who have been following the project. This connection gives the song a sense of finality. It’s warm, raw, and deliberately human in its subject matter, capturing the odd thrill of love while showing how an old-school soul feeling can still speak naturally to the present.
