That's a Girls Name is the fourth EP by American rapper DRAM, released on July 18, 2018, via Empire and Atlantic Records. Produced by Josh Abraham and Oligee, it was a surprise release,[1][2] and consists of three songs that were characterized by Stereogum as "deeply goofy and fun takes on '80s soul".[3]
The EP's opening track, "Best Hugs", is a "shimmery adult-contempo synth-glide" that is an "ode to another person's girlfriend",[4] while second song "WWYD?" contains a "cocktail bar" feel with "canned" horn accompaniment that features "amateurish rapping" from DRAM. The third and final track, "Sundress", features a prominent, funky bassline and was considered to be influenced by Prince.[5][3] The release was called "inspired by hugs, carwashes, construction workers and Twitter"[6] with witty lyrics.[4]
Stereogum and Paste found the three tracks "very, very good",[3][5] with Paste further calling the EP "profoundly goofy, in true DRAM style, and it plays on '80s soul vibes".[5]Clash judged it to be an EP of "irresistible Summer funk", while Consequence of Sound stated that its tracks have DRAM "compellingly embracing elements of soul and hip-hop".[8]Spin called the EP a "typically bubbly and optimistic group of poppy hip-hop songs".[9]RapReviews said, "...[as far] as extended plays go, this one is definitely worth going out of your way for.[7]
