H.E.R. - Closer To Me (Audio) 

A lot of today’s RnB artists don’t know how to sample correctly. But, this sample of Goapele’s “Closer” was IT! she did this so smoothly and kept alllll the vibes and made it relevant to today. more of this in music 😫!!

No she didn’t just sample Goapele: Closer. If you don’t know who Goapele is, then you don’t know real music & you’re probably too young😭...the memories just came flooding in💕💕💕💕Thank you for bringing that gem back. ❤️

She is the best in the game

She sampled the beat from the song “Closer” by Goapele. What a genius🔥🔥🔥.

She sampled one of the most legendary songs, now that’s talent! 😩🔥

I see mo' Grammys!!!! (Prince is somewhere in the cosmos smiling down on this...💜)

I'm 40 and obsessed with this young lady's music. She's such a class act.

I love how she incorporates healthy communication. She's expressing how she feels, her insecurities, her hopes. But her overall love for this person. She's accountable & hopeful knows her worth but knows she needs to compromise too just a little reassurance. She's trying to work things out, great song

I’ve been listening to this song for the past 2 hours on repeat. I’m obsessed 😔😍

This song should be illegal.😭😭 Been listening to this for the past 2 days and every line is hitting my soul and every beat touching my heart.

She’s a blessing to this generation I swear!!!

I'll be 54 this year and I love H.E.R MUSIC

THIS..IS...THE..FUCKIN...ONE🔥🔥🔥🔥...I cant turn this joint off!! This sample EVERYTHING.

The person who produced this song has to be the same person who produced “Damage” 🤧🔥

Can see this being used in a black love movie

OMG PLEASE I DIDNT NEED THIS RN 🥺

HER musical influence is super eclectic ✨

This woman has helped me through so much pain and heartache ❤

Between HER and Snoh R&B is in good hands.

That Goapele sample sounds so beautiful with her voice. Serving that neo-soul 💜

I like how in each of her album covers she starts to show her face more little by little😏

criminally underrated song. been on repeat for hours

The fact this girl is only 24 years young is just MINDBLOWING 🤯🤯

I practically had a mental breakdown listening to this song. Ya know when the lyrics just hit you...plus that Gaopele sample This is audible gold

If she isn’t the best please name one artist better ever in any genre

Oh shit the Goapele sample is everything! I know she’s feeling honored. That’s beautiful Bay Area love. ❤️

this girl can interpolate the hell out of a song chile, gifted

This one will def be on repeat for a while!

Goapele + H.E.R=cancer vibes♋🎶🎵🔥

I’ll stop bringing it up Hoping we can be better for us Us Come closer to me, babe (Closer to me, babe) (Yeah, uh) When I’m tricky, get rid of all the bitterness and issues You don’t believe me (Believe me, yeah) Ain’t your responsibility to make me happy But you damn sure don’t make it easy (Easy on me) Sometimes you feel like [a wound?] from mistakes, but I don’t judge (I don’t judge you, baby) I just need to know that it’s always been different with us (Us, us) Always in lust I get worried, can’t trust you, baby I invested too much I been healing, don’t rush it, babe Can we make up For all the times we weren’t touching, baby? I’ll stop bringing it up Hoping we can be better for us Ooh-ooh Come closer to me, babe (Closer to me, baby) I’ll stop bringing it up If you love me, if you’re in love Oh, I deserve that, I wanna love Yeah, I deserve that kinda love I know things get better with time Don’t matter if we don’t stop drawing the line I just need you to come closer to me, babe (Babe) Yeah, closer to me, babe, yeah Feel you touch me, oh, [?], oh Hey byw I'm a singer/songwriter inspired by Lauv/Lany/Jeremy Zucker.

She’s so beautiful 🤩 like damn that voice really speaks volumes

Drake and H.E.R sampled this track with class

Feeling so depressed & down around the holidays. HER has helped me realize my worth, & believe me, it has been HARD! Who would’ve ever thought putting yourself first & knowing your worth would b so hard. But by the grace of God I will overcome all these emotions. They do not define me. Just going thru the motions. Sidenote: Heavy on the “I deserve that kind of love” because, yes I do! We all do! Remember what’s meant for us will always b for us! Beautifully done HER.. thank you! Love & light to you all. 💙✨

Yes...Closer to my dream. ❣❣❣🙂

THE QUEEN, SAMPLED A CLASSIC👑👑🔥♥️
