When you talk a good game, there always comes a time when you must show and prove. On his new single “Expectations,” singer/songwriter Gene Noble is calling on his online love interest to do just that. After a flirty exchange goes down in the DMs, it seems the two are ready to take things to the next level. In a soothing and sultry tone, swinging effortlessly between falsetto and baritone, Noble sings, “I got expectations for you / I can’t wait to taste if it's true / When I pull up I’m runnin’ through / You talkin’ s**t, I’m talkin’ s**t.” In an era where social media gives folks the confidence they might not otherwise have, this Paul Tabron Jr.-produced track provides the perfect soundtrack to shoot your shot.
Nobles’ vocals are weaved throughout a sea of immaculate and hypnotic piano chords and serve sexy in a way that only he can. His tone is seductive and confident as he cruises through the first verse as if he’s speaking directly into the listener’s ear. It’s all kept quite smooth before he launches in for the kill with his signature spine-tingling runs. Much like his edgy lyrics, Gene has the extraordinary ability to show off his vocal acrobatics without overdoing it.
