Is this really happening?

Thanks a lot Dallas.  I mean who is this foppish Canadian guy? And how has he managed to score a load of collaborations with decent rappers? More importantly, how is it that ‘Piano Lessons’ works when everything on paper says that it shouldn’t?  My whole world’s spinning right now.

But seriously, I’m really enjoying this.  The Black Milk production is fantastic, Ortiz’s verse gives a dose of necessary grit and dare I say it, I think Munroe’s auto-tuned vocals sit really well in the mix. Pretend you hate it if you want, but there’s no getting away from the fact that this is a seriously catchy pop song.

Personally, I’m hooked.  Don’t get it twisted though, the rest of Colin Munroe Is The Unsung Hero is awful; confidence in my own taste stays thankfully intact. And yes, that was an audible sigh of relief you just heard.
