TRI.BE - RUB-A-DUM
Review
"RUB-A-DUM" has undoubtedly many similarities to the group's debut single "Doom Doom Ta". The song is more fragmented and less hooky, like several songs were stuck together. It incorporates modern girl-group tropes, including a half-time rap breakdown and a chant-heavy hook. The rhythm of the song is the glue holds everything together, but some of its percussive elements feel unconvincing and rather obnoxious. The song sure is energetic and fun, but it throws everything into the blender, creating a hodgepodge beat that can be difficult to parse. The chorus is definitely the best part of the song, with its instrumental and weird noises as words on top. "Rub-A-Dum" is an ambitious song that showcases TRI.BE's energetic and unique musical style but it suffers from lack of originality.
