The late XXXTentacion delves into his troubling past on the slow-burner track “Moonlight” from his ? album, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart dated March 31. He speaks to his damaged self, a dark envelope eclipsing his life, as detailed in the media due to the multiple abuse allegations against him from his then-pregnant ex-girlfriend.
But the girl he outlines in this song offers him some light amid the darkness when she calls, which he croons about in the bridge — “All alone, call my phone, make me feel right/ Girl you know when you call, make me feel right.” It’s the soft side peeking out from underneath the “Anti-Christ” of the new SoundCloud rap era, as christened by Joe Budden in an “Everyday Struggle” Complex episode from April 2017.
