Gym Class Heroes - Stereo Hearts
Artist: Gym Class Heroes
Producer: Benny Blanco
Album: The Papercut Chronicles II
Label: Fueled By Ramen/WMG
When Travie McCoy struck out on his own to drop Booth-acclaimed, commercially-successful solo debut Lazarus, some fans feared that the Cali hitmaker was angling to leave his former crew behind. If you were one of those left wondering whether the Gym Class Heroes would survive its frontman’s transition to pop stardom, new single Stereo Hearts should be just the thing to allay your doubts. On this exuberant selection, instrumentalists Disashi, Eric and Matt collide with producer Benny Blanco behind the boards, cooking up a lush, bouncy hip-pop backdrop for McCoy’s picturesque musings on love, loss and the power of music. Comparing himself to an trusty old-school boom box that seen its share of bumps and bruises, he asks listeners, “Don’t get mad at me / when you have to purchase mad D batteries.” Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine assists on the guest tip, lending his vocals to the hook and poignant bridge. Time for readers to weigh in—does this lead single leave you with high hopes for GCH’s forthcoming set? If you like what you’re hearing, keep it locked for details on The Papercut Chronicles II, which has yet to receive a solid drop date.

That first line about the records made me realised I've underestimated Travie as a rapper lol. I'll enjoy this song before it gets played 20 times a day

I do not think you have to be a Maroon 5 fan to rock with the hook on this track and the lyrics definitely will make this track scream for mad air play over the summer! Well put together track for me...it's going into rotation right now!!

I've been a Gym Class Heroes fan for a minute, so it's great to hear something new. And Adam Levine has such a unique voice making this track a winner. Chea!

I'm a fan, but I personally like these guys a lot more when they are being experimental, finding different sounds between genres, and just having fun with it. I'm less impressed by parts of this track, which seem to be swinging for the mainstream pop fences... though, admittedly, they are very good at that too.

On the Billionaire tip that put Travie in the spotlight again. Not as good but still has something to it. Benny always has a nice sound to his tracks. Seems like this will be in the pop rotation soon & that always makes you a couple bucks.

Very radio ready, but still manages to retain its integrity as a hip hop song. I can dig it.
