Production team G.A.D & Shoji whipped up something smooth with “LOYAL,” and singer Adolphus Scottie Scott’s got a voice that that cradles you, like a slow dance in the kitchen, lights dim, and everything else just fading away. This offering is all about that real, ride-or-die love. Scott’s voice cruises through the track, heavy with gratitude for a partner who’s always holding him down.
From the jump, Adolphus’ trying to put into words what his heart feels, but you can tell he’s almost at a loss (“I can’t describe how you make feel (how you make me feel)/ But I’ll try cause you, you’re the real deal (the real deal).”
Pushing on, he admits “You’re able to sniff through my bull/ Keep it a buck only you know the truth“, acknowledging that this life partner isn’t just some fair-weather friend. They see through his flaws, his mess-ups, and still show love. The chorus—”You’re so loyal, you’re so true”—is like a mantra, a repeated affirmation of the solid, unwavering bond they share.
The arrangement that producers/arrangers G.A.D & Shoji lay down is silky and laid-back, letting Scott’s voice shine through. The whole thing feels like a love letter—simple, honest, and straight from the heart. It’s a track that makes you appreciate the one who sticks by your side, no matter what.
