the verses has a sample from Hubert Law called no more of a flute that goes on through out the verses of the song. the key in Minor to give it a more subtle feeling to it.
Melody:
with the melody is mostly from the sampled flute accompanied by the vocals. the sampled flute is used for the chorus and cut out in the verse for the vocals.
Tempo/Rhythm:
For the tempo for this track is in the middle from fast and slow to give it that chilled vibe and it never changes. the rhythm of the song is mainly made by the drums and the percussion within the song. The rhythm is very bouncy and will definitely get your feet moving.
Mix:
The song was very well mixed from how all the instrumentals and EQ are balanced out from one another. The loudest in the song would have to go to the kick drum. reason for this to be the loudest in mix is to get you to move or bump your head to the song. I would describe the kick punchy and thick to get that "in your face feel"
Instrumentation:
This song has a lot of instrument play different chords different melodies differently. First, we got the strings playing the chords above accompanied with piano playing the same chords complementing on another. Next, we have the sampled flutes that provides the melody for the song which helps out with the backing vocals. finally, as said for the mix what keeps the rhythm is the drums. reason for using strings and the piano as the chords is cause it has a chilled vibe to it so you can appreciate all te effort he put into making the song and same could be said for the sampled flute.
Structure:
for the structure of the song, it starts off as an intro which lasts for 2 bars with a different section from the song he sampled which then drop into the chorus with the main sampled flute he sampled. then the verse kicks in which last for 12 bars. then as followed the chorus etc. after the 3rd chorus he repeats it again with another 8 bars.
Lyrics:
The lyrics for this so has a real feeling of how it feels to be in love with someone. What J cole usually tries to do with his lyrics is to paint you a picture of a story he is rapping/singing about and this song is no acceptation. He paints an image of a guy falling in loving how can't sleep can't eat keeps writing love song thinking about the one he love. His flow for this song is not at all aggressive but calm with fits for this song. the singers flow (Miguel) is smooth which fit perfectly for the chorus. J cole and producer Elite came up the lyrics for the song. there also 2 or 3 offensive words in it to also sure the love can be frustrating as well.
