Review

Dominic Fike's debut EP, "Don't Forget About Me, Demos," really packs a punch with its six tracks that blend various musical styles with a sort of effortless flair. It's fascinating how these demos, originally recorded during a tough period when Fike was on house arrest, managed to echo his deep-seated fears of fading into obscurity. Yet, he turned these circumstances around by releasing this music, ensuring his voice was heard even while he was confined at home. The EP's standout track, "3 Nights," caught fire quickly, igniting a fierce competition among record labels that ultimately led Fike to land a sweet deal with Columbia Records.

What really stands out with "Don't Forget About Me, Demos" is its blend of pop, hip-hop, rock, and a touch of reggae, showcasing Dominic Fike's chameleon-like ability to jump across genres effortlessly. There’s a raw, unpolished vibe to the production that adds character and authenticity, making you feel as though you’re getting a sneak peek into the bare bones of his creative process. Overall, the EP not only marks Dominic Fike's bold entry into the music world but also signals the arrival of a fresh voice that isn’t afraid to mix it up and keep things interesting. If you're into music that combines heartfelt storytelling with experimental sounds, this EP will definitely catch your ear. - Preston
