Composition


Nymph is primarily a pop album,[1] through critics have noted that the album resists strict genre classification.[7][8] "Firefly", "Heaven", and "Coochie (A Bedtime Story)" are all hyperpop songs with the latter incorporating trap beats.[8][9][10][11] UK garage and 2-step are present on both "Firefly" and "Wildfire", while "Nike" and "Missing U" incorporate rap music.[10][11] "Poison" is a Europop-inspired blog house track "with a raucous accordion hook and club-ready bass squelches".[7][11] "Honey" merges jungle breakbeats and liquid drum 'n' bass into a "sultry" R&B ballad.[9][10] The Arca-produced "Come for Me" is a "mutant" reggaetón song with "sparse, militant drum patterns sound like they’ve been swallowed by broken subwoofers"[11][10]
