Why do we like this?

Okay, this is kind of a weird one. BOYBOY caught my attention about a year back with his aptly-named single "BOY." What's that weird, you ask? Well, if you listen to that song and this song side-by-side, you'll notice that there's something very familiar.

"Afraid" has  ZHU-esque feel, which I reckon is a pretty good thing. It also manages to basically sound like "BOY" without sounding at all like "BOY." It's a super different song, and yet... overlaps immensely.

Okay, I feel like I'm talking in circles now, so I'll just go ahead and let the song speak for itself...

By Jason Grishkoff on Mar 28, 2016 | Song title and artist feel repetitive and a bit unoriginal? I feel ya. But this song will probably make up for all of that...
