Colin Munroe - I'm Fine ft. Young Buck
Artist: Colin Munroe
Featuring: Young Buck
Producer: Beatnick & K-Salaam
Album: Where The Streets Have No Name (Compilation Album)
Label: EMI Music
Though Colin Munroe hit the scene as an Unsung Hero, it may be time to put that title to rest – we at DJBooth have been singing the North Gower native’s praises for quite a while now, and this new record should earn him another round of plaudits from our regulars. I’m Fine sees the singer/songwriter putting a gently unconventional spin on a popular topic: the daily grind. Over mellow, sampled production by Booth favorites K-Salaam and Beatnick, Munroe admits that there’s nothing wrong, per se; it’s just that all the hard work he’s putting in doesn’t seem to be bringing the finish line any closer. Young Buck provides moral support on his guest verse, stating that life can be a struggle no matter who you are or how much you’ve accomplished. A catchy cut that most of us can relate to, I’m Fine is set for inclusion on K-Salaam & Beatnick’s forthcoming compilation album, Where the Streets Have No Name (also featuring Booth-approved cut In Jamaica with K’naan and Buckshot).

Damn, this must be a promotional move because I would never guess Buck to jump on a track with this guy. Solid track though! Colin has had some hit or miss tracks but I think this could be appreciated from everyone. Good to hear from Buck too.

Promotional move or not, Buck snapped. I agree...I would never have thought Buck would collab with Colin. But I think Buck is in store for big things that are forthcoming. All he had to do was break about from 50 and he could go to the moon.
Colin's vocals are always eclectic. I like the vibe a lot. Young Buck served up a gritty, uplifting verse! That's one of the best verses I've heard ever from him! Positive vibes. I can't wait for a new solo project from him with his new found independence. |

Beatnick & K-Salaam have a way of bringing together artists who would never work together. This works!
Production is stellar (as always is the case with the fellas) and Colin is truly one of my favorite new artists. He has his own lane and sounds like NOBODY else out right now. YB always brings energy. |

A case of 2 things/voices that shouldn't sound good together, but work anyway....

Man, I don't know what it is but I really, really, really like this guy! His style is sick and he knows what beats to use! His voice sounds excellent and his Swagger/Flow is just simply CRAZY! Dude has what it takes to be BIG! The beat is fly on here and Colin lays it down PROPER on here! Young BUCK KILLED THIS! His flow is made for this beat! COME BACK TO G-UNIT! LOL! SICK! This is a BANGER EASILY!

K Salaam and Beatnick are second on my list of favorite producers right now only to Statik Selektah. However, I can definitely turn to the former for smooth, slick beats, and this is definitely one of them.
I like the song, but I dont know about Munroe's vocals. I like them, but theres somethin missin. Buck was cool on here but not great... definitely worthy of a few more spins, tho. |

It's weird, i like it then I don't. I still think that his best song was with Drake in "Cannon Ball" but I don't think that I like is upbeat stuff to much even though the production is tight.

I told you before: we're lucky to have Colin Munroe in the game!
The producers are one of my favs with just a hand of features in DjBooth, always good music! It's good to hear YB again, and he did good! |

I liked him from his combo in Cannonball with Drake; this jam here is making me appreciate this guy. Looking forward to more singles.
