However, it is Stith’s solo music that allows him to shine the brightest, with his own production and incomparable falsetto. His 2017 debut project Can We Talk garnered attention and rave reviews from the likes of Complex, Billboard, HipHopDX and more and eventually led to his signing with BPG/RCA Records. Since then he has toured with August Alsina and just wrapped his time on H.E.R.’s “I Used To Know Her” tour. With his versatility, passion and latest release of his Good Company EP that boasts features from Ty Dolla $ign, Quavo and Swae Lee, Stith is one to watch in 2019.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But there′s another side of me
That I wanna show you, show you
In the nightime, oh it really doesn't matter to me
But I want you, so desperately
Do you know what I mean baby?
I, I wanna take you there, if that's alright with you
Nobody else can do
Nobody else can do
Oh yeah
I′m curious, to know what it feels like, baby
Lost in your love, it must feel so amazing
Let me take my time on you baby
We ain′t gotta rush, we can go slow if you want to
I'm gon put your mind in different places
Make your body and soul feel brand new
I wanna take you there baby, if that′s alright with you
I wanna do some things baby, that nobody else can do
Nobody else can do
Uh yeah uh yeah yeah
That nobody else can do
Oh yeah
Oh nobody else can do

Such a masterpiece. The Michael Jackson influence is just right.

He reminds me so much of Micheal 😫

This song is amazing. Tone, I've been on the production and management teams for some big artists in my life and you have it. Just a matter of time until you are completely out of here. You're like Prince, Michael, and El wrapped up into one. Don't stop. 2021.

I felt the same! I was listening to Eric Bellinger's new album last week on Tidal and when that went off FWM came on. I'm letting that play while I drive and find a new song. Then I'm like "hold up this boy smooth". So I was like let me give him a chance. "Devotion" was next and those falsettos blew me away (later I found out that I went to school with the girl in the video, she confirmed it's her). Then "Take It There" got me hooked. As I listened, I kept thinking he's low-key but he knows he would steal Chris Brown's spotlight. His voice, throwback style and songwriting skills 👌 and he's not doing a bunch of remakes, these are all originals. I'm still in shock.
@carolinepapik
Please does anyone else get old skool mj vibes from this track or is it just me?! Love this
@jenilecelina6486
