R&B/Review Merunisa - The Way You Make Me Feel

North West London singer/songwriter Merunisa takes inspiration from the likes of Kehlani, Abel (The Weeknd), and Jhene Aiko, creating her own unique sound and adding twists to the alternative R&B genre. Better described as a cross-genre artist, Merunisa has demonstrated her ability to own sounds outside of her 'range', like on the drill-infused track 'JET' in contrast to her summer banger 'Henny n' Ice'.

The captivating journey through the complexities of love found in Merunisa's "The Way You Make Me Feel" is encapsulated in an alternative R&B sound that grabs listeners from the very first chord. This track, which was influenced by the chords of Summer Walker's "Session 32," offers a special fusion of darkness and euphoria while creating a compelling story for listeners.

"The Way You Make Me Feel" is fundamentally a love story, but it's not your average romance. As an option, Merunisa gives the song a sinister edge, delving into the depths of desire and love in a way that is at once eerie and seductive. She explores the intricacies of love in in much more specifics with each stanza, attempting to capture the highs and lows of the feeling in exquisite detail.

The sound design of the song is among its most notable features. The rich, evocative production behind Merunisa's voice creates an immersive experience that captivates listeners from the first note. The song gains even more depth and passion from the eerie melodies and somber orchestration, which wonderfully match the lyrical concerns.

"The Way You Make Me Feel" is unique in that it elicits a variety of feelings. It reminds listeners that love is not always sunshine and flowers while delving into the darkest sides of human nature as it tackles topics of love and desire. Offering a more nuanced view on the complexity of love relationships, it's a refreshing take on the R&B genre.

In conclusion, Merunisa's "The Way You Make Me Feel" is an engrossing examination of love and desire set against a soundtrack of sumptuous, atmospheric composition. This song gives a novel perspective on the R&B genre and displays Merunisa's storytelling and singing skills with its dark spin on the classic love ballad.
