"It's Mine" is a bold, guitar-driven instrumental that radiates confidence, swagger, and pure funk energy. From the first downbeat, the track grabs hold with a tight rhythm section—bass and drums locked in a groove that’s equal parts vintage soul and modern funk finesse. Layered atop this rhythmic foundation are multiple guitar parts, each played by David himself, weaving a rich tapestry of tone, texture, and attitude.
The guitars are the undeniable stars here—clean, crunchy, wah-soaked, and rhythmically sharp. They converse, clash, and complement each other in a dynamic interplay that feels like a musical tug-of-war between funk and rock. Whether it’s a slick riff, a syncopated chord stab, or a soaring melodic line, every guitar voice claims its space with purpose. And yet, they never overpower the ensemble—this is a track built on balance and groove.
Adding even more flavor is a punchy horn section that punctuates the arrangement with bursts of brass brilliance. The horns don’t just decorate—they drive. Their syncopated hits and harmonized lines elevate the track, giving it a celebratory, almost cinematic feel.
"It's Mine" is more than a title—it’s a declaration. This is a song that owns its sound unapologetically. It’s a showcase of musical craftsmanship, groove mastery, and a deep love for funk’s expressive power. Whether you're nodding along in your headphones or dancing in your living room, this track demands attention and rewards it with every beat.
