About Woo$Ah by Childish Major Album
Childish Major isn’t exactly dropping jaws with his bars, but Woo$ah succeeds on the strength of his melodic prowess. The most ear-grabbing lyrics are often the kid’s hum-worthy hooks, such as on the SZA and Isaiah Rashad-assisted “Happy Birthday.” The simple chant “It’s your birthday, it’s your birthday…” over repetitive, hard-knock drums will burrow in the listener’s brain and stay there when they’re at work, at the gym, or at their niece’s Bat Mitzvah. This is the case with most of the hooks, though an exception is “Aim High,” which repeats the title to a tired effect. However, Childish Major’s ability to craft memorable music with such bare-bones elements is a testament to his talent and makes Woo$ah an indelible affair.
