Earlier this year, Fred Again.. released a clubby anthem called “Jungle,” and then invited Rico Nasty on for a fiery remix. He’s back today with the announcement of his new album Actual Life 3 (January 1 – September 9 2022), which will arrive later this fall. The lead single “Danielle (Smile On My Face)” is out now.
“Danielle (Smile On My Face)” is a pulsating, restless track that samples “Nice To Have” by 070 Shake, whose real name is notably Danielle Balbuena. The airy vocals add to the ethereal atmosphere; though it’s jittery and upbeat, there is an undertone of melancholy that makes it endearingly bittersweet.
