Reuben Aziz – “Too Many” Review: smooth, summery R&B with a no-drama hook

<p>Reuben Aziz’s “Too Many” is smooth, summery R&#038;B with a chorus that sticks and a feel-good, no-drama message.</p>

Too Many” is Reuben Aziz going direct: a matter-of-fact opener, a smooth R&B glide, and a chorus built to stick.

Produced with iO (credits: J Hus, Lojay, Odeal) and released 10 September 2025 via Alamo/Sony, the official visualiser is live on his YouTube.

He gets straight to it. “Too many girls ‘round here… you’re the only one I wanna be near.

The vocal sits close and calm while the beat moves with purpose; phrases hit right with the drums and guitar stabs, so the whole thing feels locked in. It’s smooth, mellow, and a vibe.

The chorus nods to early-2000s pop-rap swagger without losing its R&B core.

Press around the release calls out a 50 Cent spark in the hook, and you can hear it, but the delivery leans warmer and more melodic.

If you grew up on early Drake, the soft focus and easy swing will feel familiar, even as the writing stays clean and present-tense.

Production-wise, iO keeps the edges tidy and the pace up. The track aims for feel-good rather than messy drama, shining a brighter light on British R&B and the love-song lane.

It works because the message is simple and the record doesn’t overreach. 

We’ve covered Aziz before, and the through-line is consistency. “City Girls and Always Come Back showed the same instinct for melody and economy; “Too Many” just packages it to the next level.
