7 Alkaline’s latest release, Relationship Status, reflects on his past relationship, as he gets vulnerable and details the hardships of his love life.
7 Alkaline is a rising star from Jersey City, New Jersey, who just released his debut album, Relationship Status. The project is an eleven-track album that centers around 7 Alkaline’s heartbreak and his current, Relationship Status. The project features Deeno Ape, Slim, and Money Monster, as they detail their journey of love and the struggles of navigating toxic relationships.
7 Alkaline comes into his sound on this record, showcasing his “smooth, melodic, and refreshing to the ear” melodies. He melds and blends these melodic refrains with hard-hitting beats with powerful bass; it is no wonder 7’s influences include the likes of Juice Wrld, A Boogie, Kodak Black, and Labrinth. 7 Alkaline describes them as his “Mount Rushmore” of artists to look up to, no surprise, as with only one song it is evident, their influence on his sound.
The sounds that come off of 7 Alkaline’s project are not only touching, as he expresses his vulnerability but bad as shit, as he never loses his cool, keeping it throughout the entire project. Even with his track “Devil In A Dress,” Alkaline is mad, but he doesn’t seem jaded, just more “tired” and “drained” of the fling.
Another stand-out track where 7 Alkaline gets vulnerable and reflective, his song, “Unprotected Heart,” where he gives a narrative account of his heartbreak, as he “sheds tears,” detailing why his heart needs protection. On his final song, “Her Secrets,” featuring Money Monster, 7 Alkaline airs out his ex’s dirty laundry, from cheating on him with her ex, and how she has “been wearing masks, way before Covid.” The artist ends his album with the perfect track, summarizing why he made the album, and why he feels so betrayed.
7 Alkaline’s debut album, Relationship Status, is a bonafide classic breakup album, as it has everything from anthems to ballads. 7 Alkaline has something for everyone on this project.
