Reo Cragun - Grown Men Don’t Cry

By: Caleb Johnson IG: CJSleeves

There’s no way that this isn’t a reference to Fergie’s ‘Big Girls Don’t Cry’, right? Either way, it’s a hard-hitting, emotional song that deserves attention. On this one we see Reo Cragun very vulnerable, wearing his heart out on his sleeve.

‘Grown Men Don’t Cry’ sounds like something that Frank Ocean, Brockhampton and A$AP Rocky would make if they all worked together. The vocal effects carry the song, changing pitches among many other things. The instrumental packs a punch, hard-hitting enough to bump your head to. Yet, the style is also so unlike anything else I’ve ever heard. It’s intriguing and refreshing, making this one that I will definitely have in rotation for a long time.

Lyrics That Stick:

“I don’t want to paper chase, I just want this all to end

I don’t want feel this way for life”
