Jakkah’s latest release “Floating” feels like stepping into the deep end of a party you didn’t mean to stay at—but somehow, you’re still there, lost in the bass, the bodies, and that one gaze from across the room. It’s slippery, seductive, and smooth in all the right places—a song that doesn’t rush, because the moment it’s painting doesn’t either.
The production hits with that same lush, hazy energy you’d expect from a Don Toliver or Brent Faiyaz track. It’s the kind of beat that doesn’t demand attention—it just draws it, like smoke curling toward the ceiling. Jakkah’s delivery floats right on top: laid-back, melodic, confident without being loud. It’s a sound that flirts with R&B, dips into rap, and stays somewhere in between.
Lyrically, the song walks that delicate line between intimacy and detachment. Lines like “Porsche body baby, I could drive it, just no pink slip” hit with clever metaphor—this isn’t about love, it’s about chemistry. The connection is real, but temporary. No strings. No promises. Just now.
Tyler Loyal’s guest verse doesn’t break the spell—it deepens it. He brings a raw, matter-of-fact edge to the track, pulling the vibe closer to the ground with a voice that sounds like it’s seen the afterparty before. Together, the two artists create a dual perspective: one eye on the pleasure, the other on the fallout.
“Floating” isn’t trying to be deep, but it lands there anyway—because it captures something honest about the night life, about temptation, about how easy it is to slip out of reality when the lights get low. It’s short, addictive, and mood-heavy. Play it once, and it lingers like perfume on someone else’s hoodie.
Whether it’s your pre-game anthem or your 2AM replay, Floating doesn’t just describe a feeling—it delivers it.
