Tek-Neek – “ACT II.III – Where The Love”
Dec
In “ACT II.III – Where The Love,” Tek-Neek is immersed by a woman’s profoundness.
Matching his sentiments with a dreamy R&B soundscape, the LA-based musician expresses how she’s enchanted him. But, in contrast, he proves why his kindness should never be taken for weakness.
Using a bouncy melodic flow, he delivers
“Riding on the bench be my water girl/Sat me out for about half the season/Fucking with them lames I know the reason.”
He also raps, “When I get up in it we gone have to go to war /Lay the smack down ima have to lay the law/Slicing through that bih like I got me a sword/Jedi mind tricks on em like I got the force.”
As various ethereal-like harmonies echo him, Tek-Neek also voices how he aims to please her.
The harmonies then sing softly, “Sweet Love/Tainted/All my/Senses/Can’t make/No sense/None of this.” It’s as if Tek-Neek is questioning how love is professed nowadays.
Near the two-minute mark, the beat becomes more chopped and screwed. Tek-Neek also uses this moment to use an auto-tune cadence. The multi-hyphenate creator uses the woozy production to elaborate on how deeply he feels for his kryptonite.
“When I see that /I’m a savage/When I get up on it/I’ma addict,” he says toward the end of “ACT II.III – Where The Love.”
“Pop a couple/like some addys/She addictive/So addicting.”
In the music video for “ACT II.III – Where The Love” Tek-Neek can be seen moving mountains to get closer to his boo. He walks extensively through a deserted area and finds the beauty in a black dress. This video is a part of several short musical films, starting with “Act II, Who’s in the Closet.”
