This is a hard one to describe. With that said, House of Balloons has an R&B base but from there the sound spreads into other genres making it hard to pin it down. Regardless, this album is smooth as some black silk draped on a sexy body in bed. I love the balance of sensuality and darkness. The drowsy atmosphere is found throughout the album but there are times the beat picks up, creating a groove perfect for dancing by yourself, with too many drinks in your stomach, in a crowded room with little light. Plus, there are lyrics, passionate and dramatic at times, certainly have the recipe for perfect sing along time alone or with friends. I have been taking this album in recently and you should do the same if you have not yet. It has a radio-friendly element to it but, at the same time, too off for radio which is the perfection combination for me.
