Fall in Love with Dmillyyy’s New EP “Cupid Pack”

Published

Dmillyyy kicked off the month of love with the lead single, “Balance.” “Balance” was Dmillyyy’s first song of the year. The record served as a teaser for his new EP, Cupid Pack, which was released on Valentine’s Day. Cupid Pack is a five-track EP that dives into the intricacies of love. The EP is an eclectic body of work as it utilizes various genres of music, such as Alternative R&B, Melodic Rap, and Reggaeton.

Cupid Pack starts off with the song, “Thunderstruck.” The track is a record that features a wavy beat and Dmillyyy’s smooth flow. The sound is reminiscent of Jaden. The next track, “Balance,” is a fan favorite and for good reason. “Balance” has a bouncy beat that makes listeners want to groove. The record has a Drake feel to it. The catchy hook reels you in immediately. Dmillyyy cleverly sprinkles in some Spanish lyrics, which are a prelude to the third track on the EP. “Q.M. Interludio” follows “Balance.” The Latin Music interlude showcases the versatility that Dmillyyy possesses. The penultimate track, “WYGD,” is a downtempo, love song that is enchanting. The tune has a sample that blends well with the theme of the song. “WYGD” sets up the EP’s closer as “Madness” is another slow jam. “Madness” is the perfect finale. The sensual track embodies passion and love.

The EP’s introspective/extrospective take on love provides all listeners with songs that resonate with them. Although each song has its own flavor and unique sound, they still connect and carry a cohesive message. “Cupid Pack is an image painted to describe different emotions that may arise for particular love interests.” Dmillyyy continues: “Sometimes it isn’t that serious and just the feeling that you want to cherish. Sometimes the other’s existence makes you want to question everything and reflect back on your own life. Either way, both parties are living in the moment and letting that lead the way.” Cupid Pack is only the beginning as Dmillyyy has much in store for the year. While waiting for his next masterpiece, be sure to show love to the immaculate EP that is Cupid Pack.

sombr Brings the You Are The Reason Tour to Scotiabank Arena on November 16

Toronto gets one of the last stops on the biggest breakout run in pop. sombr brings his You Are The Reason Tour to Scotiabank Arena on Monday, November 16, with Dove Cameron and Hannah Jadagu opening the night.

The show starts at 7:00 PM, and the Toronto date sits near the end of a 37 show North American arena tour. The run opened in July at the Pepsi Center in Mexico City and closes at Madison Square Garden in sombr’s hometown of New York City, which makes the Scotiabank Arena stop one of the final chances to catch the tour before it wraps.

The rise behind the tour is real. sombr is a Grammy nominee for Best New Artist, and his debut album I Barely Know Her turned one year old this fall. In April he made his Coachella debut, a set the tour announcement noted for a special guest appearance from Billy Corgan of The Smashing Pumpkins. Since then the You Are The Reason show has been traveling, and his own tour posts from the road have shown packed rooms and a singer who treats every stage like it is the one that matters.

Toronto’s support lineup is part of the draw. Dove Cameron brings her own pop following to the bill, and Hannah Jadagu opens, giving the night three distinct voices before the headliner takes the stage. Support has rotated across the tour, with names like Interpol, The Last Dinner Party and Tom Odell appearing in other cities, and the Toronto pairing of Cameron and Jadagu is set for this date only.

For an artist who was writing songs alone in his room not long ago, an arena in downtown Toronto on a Monday night says plenty about how far the music has traveled. Tickets for the November 16 show are available through Ticketmaster.
