The fifth installment showcases the artist\u2019s growth in style and production<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n
If the name Powfu doesn\u2019t ring a bell, it\u2019s sure to within the coming months. Most known for his viral TikTok hit, \u201cdeath bed (coffee for your head)\u201d, the rising artist has slowly released music over the years through small EPs. While his previous \u2018some boring love stories\u2019 installments have been slowly rolled out since 2018, his fifth volume may be his best. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
For eight songs, Powfu expands his musical range both lyrically and sonically. In a press statement released before the album, Powfu stated \u201cThis is my favorite EP that I\u2019ve released to date. The song \u2018the fire in your eyes keeps me warm\u2019 is also my favorite song I\u2019ve written so far. This project as a whole is very special to me and I\u2019m very proud of it. I think the production is a big step up, and I believe my fans will love it just as much as I do.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2018some boring love stories pt. 5\u2019 is a worthy addition to his romantic, lo-fi Eps as he delves into new forms of production with new stories to entertain. On tracks such as \u201c17again\u201d, Powfu delivers one of his most slowed down and smooth songs to date as he explores the punk genre. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
On others, such as \u201cthe fire in your eyes keeps me warm\u201d and \u201cthrow it all away\u201d, he sticks close to his signature piano and lo-fi blend that his fanbase has come to know and love. Despite the project being a mere eight songs over 21 minutes, it\u2019s sure to hold fans over until his highly anticipated debut album. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
What are sure to be some of the standout tracks from the project are \u201cwhen the hospital was my home\u201d and \u201cclash of the titans\u201d as they have a similar catchiness to his viral hit. While these are likely to receive plenty of love from his devoted fans, there\u2019s most certainly something for everyone on this project, even for listeners that didn\u2019t enjoy his previous installments in the series. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
As his viral TikTok hit partner, Beabadoobee has experienced in her recent album rollout, few songs are expected to reach the level of virality that \u201cdeath bed\u201d did earlier this year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
While the catchy tune may overshadow both of their respective careers, the fame is far from something they could regret, as Powfu has picked up millions of new fans in recent months that are just now discovering his authentic lo-fi talent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
