Russ has undoubtedly been working hard this year. After dropping off his debut album There's Really A Wolf, he made his official mark in the music industry and since then, he hasn't stopped. Back in September, he came through with back to back to back joints, all produced by Scott Storch. Today, he returns to his self-sufficient effort with "Lean On You."
Russ comes through with his smooth single, "Lean On You." On the self-produced track, Russ comes through with a more melodic touch on the whole track, leaning away from his usual raspy delivery. It's another effort from him that proves why he's in the position he's in. The production on the track is also a much smoother effort that has a tinge of pop to it.
If this is the way he chooses to end off 2017, he definitely chose to close it out on a strong note.
Quotable Lyrics
Got your back, you got my back
You won't let me get off track
If I'm down then you pick up the slack
