Marlounsly returns with an immaculate jam titled, "I Am." It was released on Friday, March 26th, 2021. The song is an inspiring piece of work that tells listeners to know their worth. "I Am" makes use of a storyline and imagery that listeners all over can relate to (Meikhel Philogene).
The Pop/R&B hit was produced by 1040. The captivating beat is only matched by the awe-inspiring lyrics and breathtaking vocals. The song's fun, powerful nature makes for the ultimate springtime anthem (Meikhel Philogene).
What is the relevance of the title, I Am. Since the track is about knowing your self-worth, it serves as an affirmation to oneself. For example, one can use these words, "I am worthy", "I am smart", only to mention a few. It is a way of knowing your self-worth. Therefore, that is why the single is titled, "I Am."
There are various ways in which the track tells listeners to know their worth. Marlounsly starts sharing a story about her having problems in her relationship. For instance, she said :
"..saying I am your girl / you gonna give me the whole world / I always believed you baby / Back when you were tryna wife me..."
From the lyrics, he has betrayed her trust, took her for granted. He probably cheated on her. In life, it is common for a relationship to have challenges. Someone takes another person for granted. Instead of leaving, some may decide to stay in a relationship only to be taken for granted. Therefore, that is why the track I Am highlights the need for listeners to know their worth. In other words, they should learn to love themselves. It is supported in the lyrics where Marlounsly said :
“I know I said this before / But I aint giving no benefit of the doubt no more “
The beat seems lower, probably to highlight her message that she has had enough. She is putting herself first. Marlounsly does not want to stay in a toxic relationship. Therefore that is why the track is something that listeners can relate to. The beat had a piano playing in the background. It had a bass sound that stayed consistent from start to finish. Therefore, it made the track even more intriguing.
In a nutshell, I admire the message shown in the track. It is a track worth listening to. Listeners can relate to this. Moreover, Marlounsly has a strong vocal arrangement that has complemented the track perfectly. Therefore I rate the track, 10/10.
Marlounsly is ready to take over 2021. She has a pair of visuals coming soon for "I Am" and a ton of releases planned for the year. Marlounsly vows to make a profound impact on the game. For now, enjoy the present and put "I Am" on a never-ending loop.
