Wale, in this track, shows once again his ability to blend different genres. He doesn't limit himself to hip-hop, but enriches it with R&B nuances, creating a familiar sound. This fusion is not only an exercise in style, but serves to intensify the emotional impact of the song. And then there is his ability to rap. Wale is a master at playing with words, creating complex rhymes and modulating his voice to best express his emotions. In 'Blanco', his rap part is an explosion of words that intertwine with the melody, creating a hypnotic and relaxing effect. His ability to go from moments of pure energy to moments of deep introspection is what makes this track so engaging; it reminds me of when you would slow dance, hugging your woman.

His propensity to blend genres, his often light-hearted lyrics and his pop-oriented musical production, do not align with my vision of rap.

"‘Travel The World’ is such a vibe! The collab with Bun B and Enisa brings smooth energy, and the track makes me think about the perfect family vacation. I can totally imagine this song playing during road trips or on a laid-back getaway. Great tune for any travel playlist!"
