After a few years off, 702
alum Meelah continues her return to the game with
the self-penned, Musiq Soulchild-produced
"Pisces." While Musiq does a decent job behind the boards recreating the
denouement of "Break You Off" (The Roots' classic on which he was featured) Meelah is far less successful in her turn as
songwriter. With ruminations on flying like a bird over the hurt and a stream-of-consciousness
gem about being a fish ("Or even two fishes / Sometimes it's just so hard to make
up my mind"), the lyrics read like the deepest musings ever scrawled in a Lisa
Frank Trapper Keeper. But Meelah's still in fine voice (and let's be honest,
702 was never really that blessed in the lyrics department), so if you've got some time (and
possibly brain cells) to kill, go ahead and push play.
