Listen to: Slideshow by Amindi

The weather is warming, the flowers are blooming, and people are ready for the changes that spring promises. With the slight exception of pollen and allergies, most people are ready to leave winter hibernation from their houses and get back to fun, in-person social lives. However, after the quarantine of 2020 (and some of 2021), a lot of people were finding it hard to get back into the swing of daily life, no matter how much they looked forward to it.

And with the short reprieve, most people experience due to the colder weather and winter holiday craziness, a good motivational playlist to get back on track is something a lot of people are looking for. Our suggestion for the first song to regain your confidence and feel like the baddie you are? “Slideshow” by Amindi.

Everyone loves a good power ballad, especially the ones that emphasize knowing your worth and how amazing you really are. “Slideshow” does that and more, by reminding the listeners to tell the difference between a real one and people who “don’t want me; you just want me cause I’m next”. Set to an audibly appealing beat that complements Amindi’s light, almost alto-sounding voice, the song highlights the LA-based singer’s full talent, from her stunning singing to her impressive raps.

Despite the song’s shorter length compared to the others on Amindi’s newest ep nice, it is able to stand out on its own just as much as any of her other singles. It’s clear to hear and, in the case of the music video, see just how much fun Amindi had in creating the track. This creates a flavor of enjoyable authenticity to the overall sound that makes you want to join in and appreciate your own confidence. Regardless of if this will be your next go-to daily anthem or just one of those songs you know will give you a mood and self-love boost, “Slideshow” is definitely not the type of track you can listen to just once. Nor should it be when it’s part of the perfect ep to blast on repeat.

“Slideshow” is track number four on Amindi’s hit EP nice, which is available on streaming platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, and more. To hear more of Amindi’s unique and awesome sound, you can find her previous tracks on SoundCloud or follow her on social media.
