On the heels of his first solo No. 1 hit, the 24-year-old rapper is releasing “Come Home the Kids Miss You,” an album that appeals to the vastly different ...
And “Nail Tech,” which takes its name from the modern parlance for a manicurist, is among the tougher songs on the album, dexterous enough to make Kanye West post that Harlow was among the “Top 5 out right now.” His growing profile, along with the public embrace of his Black female audience, he said, “has heightened my awareness of my responsibility to protect them, and just being thoughtful for the position they might be in versus white women.” “I really want to play.” In the wake of the success of “Whats Poppin,” Harlow has had a whirlwind couple of years. On the one hand, the beginning is essentially a hyperengineered TikTok trend, a sample of Fergie’s “Glamorous” that lends itself to phone-screen-friendly choreography. Navigating this aspect of fame is still new to Harlow. “It’s made me a lot more vain,” he said. “I’ve loved Black women since I was young, so it doesn’t feel foreign to me,” said Harlow, who often casts Black women as romantic interests in his videos. “I want people to hear me.” He grew up in the Highlands — a neighborhood that was “very accepting, diverse, a place that you can walk around and not have to look over your shoulder.” But he was also in contact with artists and producers from other neighborhoods, and sought to cultivate audiences in both white and Black Louisville. Whether or not Harlow, now 24, was flirting (“Sometimes I’ll just be talking to people and people think I’m flirting,” he said. The Louisville rapper EST Gee told a story on the No Jumper podcast about how the local police had attempted to dissuade Harlow from working with him, but Harlow disregarded them. It’s prominently included in a fan-assembled YouTube compilation titled “jack harlow being a natural flirt for 5 mins straight” that currently has over 6.6 million views.

“I thought that was so cool. I remember when I was younger and seeing artists bigger than me talking about how there were girls that wanted him just because he was a rapper.

I checked the web, they out here chewin’ me up, f**k it I checked the web, they out here chewin’ me up, f**k it

Jack Harlow's new album 'Come Home the Kids Miss You' has arrived. What's the best song? Biggest skip? Here's our first impressions review of the album.
I don’t know if he was in a bad mood while he was vacationing with Jack in Turks and Caicos, but he got a lot off his chest on “Churchills Down.” This is the best rapping we’ve heard from Drake in a minute. My favorite Jack Harlow song is “Baxter Avenue” from the last album, because he got personal on it, and opened up about the trials and tribulations of coming from a small town and suddenly getting ridiculously famous. In the first verse of the album’s outro, he raps about wanting to return home and escape the constant attention of fame, while simultaneously highlighting his need for power and respect. It’s dope to see how much Jack has grown since songs like “Sundown” and social media virality, but on Come Home The Kids Miss You, there are moments where feels like he’s cosplaying as the rappers he idolizes. Using a slowed-down sample of “Beautiful” on “Side Piece,” followed by the Pharrell feature on “Movie Star” and “Lil Secret” was the best three-song run on the album. Jordan: My favorite thing about Jack Harlow is that his music usually sounds authentic to him, but on this album, it almost seems like he was trying to live up to the fantasy that his now-massive legion of fans have created of him. I liked how Jack was experimenting with different flows here, from tapping into his melodic bag on “Like a Blade of Grass,” to rapping alongside his idol on the final version of “Churchill Downs.” There are some moments where it sounds like Jack is doing his best Drake impersonation, but he’s not Drake. I wanted to hear how his sound has evolved since the last album, but instead, it feels like Come Home The Kids Miss You is trying to sound like Nothing Was The Same or If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late with all the beat switches. Jessica: “Young Harleezy” is the least appealing to me and it comes off a little corny. That’s not a horrible thing—it’s a pop-leaning record that has other goals in mind—but I was hoping for a few more lyrical moments that jumped out and grabbed me. I like that Pharrell pushed him to try something new, but this thing is all over the place. “I Got A Shot” is a close second.

RAPPER Jack Harlow's dating life garners just as much attention as his hit music releases.When Jack debuted his second album, Come Home The Kids Miss.
"She was like 'Oh, I mean...it's not my song. I do." We 'bout to be somethin', they gon' have to catch up." I get it, man. Fadeaway, I lift that Luka knee up, bucket. I heard from someone you said you could be us, nothing."
On 'Come Home the Kids Miss You,' Harlow builds upon bedrock strengths, with Drake, Justin Timberlake, Pharrell and Lil Wayne among guests.
“Movie Star,” with featured co-producer and vocalist Pharrell Williams, is a minor-key electro-squelch that’s cute, but its voices never mesh, and the track seems more spiteful than soulful. So, too, does “Churchill Downs,” Harlow’s quietly odd pairing with Drake. Backed by a weirdly flute-y loop and a slow, infectious click, the team of mentor and mentee throw humble compliments at each other when they’re not offering cutting, pragmatic commentary. If being laid-back, charismatic and contagious were elements of Jack Harlow’s success story on his 2020 major label debut “That’s What They All Say,” with this week’s “Come Home the Kids Miss You,” those virtues reveal themselves as the rapper-songwriter’s golden stock-in-trade.
"I didn't want her to be blindsided by that or feel like creeped out or anything," the Grammy nominee explained.
I think when the song comes out, she’ll grow to appreciate it even more,” he declared. “But she was like, ‘Oh, I mean it’s not my song. “‘Cause I didn’t want her to be blindsided by that or feel like creeped out or anything.
