The online personality of Miya Villeno – or also known by their username and moniker Crimason – is far from their usual high speed slapstick content and Stan Tiktok phase. It’s so far to the point that the music they shill online inspired them to venture on a music career of their own. Their latest single “Enough” has been building self-hype as a pop ballad for the kids wanting to be – well, you guessed it – enough for each other. Moreover, the debut single of the 16-year old singer-songwriter has averted any risk or failed to stick out in their first attempt at songwriting. In “Enough”, it’s 4-minutes and a half of nothing but a sore thumb.
Albeit a lazy hook and standard verse-chorus, Villeno doesn’t shy away from exhibiting their chops vocally; a noticeable tenor voice that’s suitable for their voice on rougher-sounding tracks. Whereas her presence is more akin to the Born Again Christian singing seminar if you’re thinking of a song that’s as uplifting as a Retreat camp cry session. “Enough” becomes more antiseptic as time passes, the sheer velocity makes the entire track unlistenable as a whole. The entirety of it is uninspiring, wealthy in clichés and one dimensionality. The emotional anchor that this track weighs is light and hollow. If you want to chase the algorithm in Tiktok, Instagram and Spotify, this track isn’t it.
