Mo Lowda & the Humble’s first full-length effort, "Curse The Weather" is an album that any music fan can enjoy, simply because it has a bit of everything. Its dynamic peaks and valleys range from loud overdriven walls of sound to soft, delicately airy and melodic moments accentuated with reverbs and delays inducing pure relaxation. At the same time, an intricately funky rhythm section groove, serving as a canvas for wordy and playful vocal melodies, can quickly evolve into a head-nodding half-time hook. Caiola’s unique approach to songwriting is taken to the next level by Matulis’ technical bass lines and Woods’ intense drumming. While many of the tunes seem to start in a standard pop structure, there’s a great chance that in only a few minutes a full-blown outro jam will have taken a song to the ultimate crescendo of the final few measures. Although not technically a concept record, "Curse the Weather" exhibits a strong sense of continuity throughout. Lyrically, a majority of the songs contain thematic references to natural elements. Musically however, the album is a shape shifter, filled with rhythmic and melodic trap doors and wormholes.

Has The Rich Girl Caught Your Tongue
Better Hide Those Receipts

She Might Feel It Too
You Might Sweep Her Off Those $7K Stilettos
It's A Mystery

I Guess She Never Did Better
When Her Eyes Were Blinded By $'s Crossed With The Parallel Lines
There's No Good Reason To Deny

The lyrics of Power Trip by Mo Lowda & the Humble focus on the theme of power dynamics in romantic relationships. The song describes a rich girl who has caught the attention of the male protagonist, despite her apparent arrogance and privilege. She spends her weekends in Aruba and is described as a "trust fund baby." However, the singer finds something endearing about her and hopes that she might feel the same for him. He fantasizes about sweeping her off her expensive stilettos, but acknowledges that the situation is somewhat paradoxical. He questions how he can sleep at night, as he is in a relationship with someone who has so much wealth and lives a life of power.
The song explores the idea of power and how it can influence relationships. While the rich girl in the lyrics may have more power due to her wealth and privilege, the singer believes that he has something to offer, too. He acknowledges that his attraction to her may be misguided, but hopes that there is something real between them. The lyrics also suggest that money can be both a source of comfort and a burden. While the rich girl sleeps on a bed "made of money," the singer questions how he can sleep at all given the power dynamic in the relationship.
