Produced by Thaddeus Dixon, Timothy Bloom‘s piano-laden masterpiece, “All About You,” touches on regret and showing affection to loved ones before it’s too late. Coupled with Talib Kweli‘s well-crafted verse, it blends Hip Hop and soulful R&B into one, singular entity in the most beautiful way possible.
“Several months ago, someone reached out to me from G.O.O.D. Music (Kanye West’s label) about songs for one of their artists and asked did I have anything I wanted to submit,” Bloom explained in the Soundcloud link. “At the time, I was on tour with EPIC records recording artist Meghan Trainor and explained I wanted to work on something new to send in. As the tour ended a week later, I proceeded to dive into the studio and create. This is one of a few songs that I created and it came out easy as I could relate to a few things this particular artist went through.
“The artist had wrapped up their album by the time I sent it in and I decided to shop to other artists,” he continued. “With this song being special to me and having the feeling it would be relatable and special to others, I decided to release it. I felt that it was appropriate and at a much-needed time for the world to hear. It’s a song about love and things that are important in life. I dedicate this song to my father who’s not in the best of health. They say give people their flowers while they’re still alive, and I wanted to make sure he could hear this.”
