"Blue Don't Make Me Cry" by Wiley from Atlanta: An Emotionally Reflective Piece



This album has allowed me to process my personal issues deeply. Listening to this album and how it was delivered & executed allowed me to feel understood & visible to pains & discomforts that I’m not always comfortable talking about.⁣ The melancholic lyricism delivered by a man with such an intoxicatingly raspy “drunken” voice sent chills throughout my entire body. I never heard pain be expressed so effortlessly & deep. It brought so much life & imagery to this body of work. No one else could have written “BDMMC,” nor do I think this album could be duplicated. It’s a one-of-a-kind body of work by an artist whose work may not be appreciated by the masses but felt so deeply with those who it has captivated.⁣ The atmosphere of the album is ”late summer & fall seasons.” The pacing of emotions, the death of relationships, feelings, memories, passion, and the rebirth of a new monster, a new consciousness, a new ego. You wonder if it's destroying him, or perhaps making him stronger. That perspective depends on the listener & what they are processing, which makes this album so transparent & fulfilling. It’s so heavy in storyline & imagery.⁣ I play this album repeatedly, especially during these times where things seem to be confusing. It’s allowed me to feel & process. That’s something I haven’t felt in a while.⁣ Do you want something captivating? Please listen to “Blue Don’t Make Me Cry” by Wiley from Atlanta.
