FEATURED RELEASE
‘BIG options’ by Assata, is out September 3rd and will be available to stream on all major streaming platforms! The single is part of Assata’s upcoming project, ‘BIG innerG’; the first track was released in June 2021 - ‘Work For It’.
“...I was seeing this guy that was super interested and saying all the right things, but his actions revealed why words never mattered. I decided to show him better than I could tell him. “You don’t want no problems with no #Scorpio.” Having “BIG options” is stating, what a person won’t do, plenty will.”
‘BIG options’ lasts around two and a half minutes and sits at 70bpm. The track begins with a fifteen second intro that builds a sense of anticipation for the verse. Assata’s emotive vocal color flows seamlessly with the smooth vibe of the instrumentation. The subtle use of a panned vocal delay adds a creative flare and depth to the overall sound without detracting from the main melody.
The foundational sub-bass combines with the steady beat and ethereal instrumentation to provide the perfect platform for the vocal. The use of layered backing vocal elements delivers just her right amount of dynamic diversity to ensure that this single is engaging from start to finish. By the time ‘BIG options’ draws to a close, you’ll find yourself humming along with the catchy hook and in need of hitting that repeat button for another listen.
From the well balanced production and creative compositional arrangement, to the authentic vocal performance, fans of Assata, as well as those who appreciate new music, will definitely want to hear this single.
