Musically, "Incapable" is an R&B ballad which lasts for a duration of 3:24 (three minutes and twenty-five seconds). [9] [3] The song is composed in the key of B♭major, set in common time signature, and has a moderately fast tempo of 180 beats per minute. [10] Instrumentation consists of an acoustic guitar, a Roland TR-808, and an emotional rhythm. [11] It includes a sample of American singer Rose Royce's single "I'm Going Down" (1976). [1] Jamie Wexler of ThisisRnb noted the elements of classic ballads and touches of old-school soul music, [12] and Chris Rizik of SoulTracks interpreted the composition as a power ballad with a "bluesy undertone". [9] Lyrics include: "It's time to grow up / I embarrassed myself enough / 'Cause I wouldn't leave you / Even my family know the truth, yeah." [13] Cole further sings about the relationship in the chorus, singing, "Oh, what a feeling / The one that I thought that I needed / Was incapable of needing me back / Incapable of loving like that." [14]

Lyrically, the song discusses a relationship where one partner is putting in more effort than the other. [7] An editor from Rap-Up viewed the lyrics as "heartbreaking" and felt that they revolve around an "ill-fated relationship". [14] Elle Breezy of Singersroom felt that the lyrics reference Cole's split from Daniel Gibson and that the song tells "the heartbreaking tale of realizing the person she loved didn't put in the same efforts into the relationship". [8] Isha Thorpe of iHeartRadio also felt that the lyrics focus on her split from Gibson, despite not being solely written by Cole. [15] Thorpe also suggested that the song "tells the story of a woman finally letting go of an ex who wronged her multiple times". [15]

Critical reception

"Incapable" was met with generally positive reviews from music critics. Royal Bey from The Source felt that the "strong" ballad reflects Cole's "uncanny" ability to hold "beautiful" notes. [16] Da'Shan Smith of Billboard labeled the song as an example of traditional R&B and declared that Cole "flirts with mixing trap 808s beneath the old swing of the '60s" on the song. [17] According to Ken Hamm from Soul Bounce, "Incapable" is a ballad about "coming to terms with the fact that the one you want just isn't the one for you". [13] Hamm further added that Cole uses "an old school sound blending blues, gospel and even a little country and lyrics that feel personal yet poetic" and described the first verse as "a come to Jesus" one. [13]

An editor from TheGrio thought that the song "talks about a lover who simply doesn't have what it takes", [18] while Biana Garwood of Ebony deemed it as a "melancholy" track. [19] Keithan Samuels, writing for Rated R&B , classified "Incapable" as part of Cole's "solid foundation on songs related to love and relationships" and praised Cole's consistency of singing love songs. [7] James Wong of Tokyo Weekender described the song as "distinctively Keyshia", [20] while Tony Centeno from Vibe described it as "unique". [21]

Music video

Background and synopsis

A music video for "Incapable", directed by Mike He, was made available through Cole's Vevo account on October 6, 2017. [22] Prior to its premiere, Cole debuted a trailer during her appearance on the American talk show The Real . [23] Cole had also posted several images of herself on set via her official Instagram account one month prior to the release. [24]

In the video, Cole and her love interest walk into a speakeasy, where men are gambling and music is playing in the background. [25] [22] After they sit down together, Cole then goes to the bathroom, where she overhears a conversation between two women in which one of them admits to the other that she is having an affair with Cole's love interest. [25] As "Incapable" starts to play, Cole is shown wearing a sleeveless starch white top and white wide brim hat while delivering a "heart-wrenching" performance of the song; this scene appears throughout. [26] [23] Impressed by her performance, members of the audience join the stage to start dancing and singing with her. [26] A waitress later walks up to the love interest to deliver him a plate full of drinks but then mistakenly spills the drinks on his lap. [26] Cole stands in front of the table as it happens and then aggressively walks away, leaving her love interest humiliated. [26] [27]

Reception

Critics praised the video for its retro style and felt that Cole was paying homage to the 1920s decade. [23] [25] [27] Samuels of Rated R&B described the video as "cinematic". [28] Mikey Fresh of Vibe complimented the video's concept and its production, writing: "Having overcome of her share of shitty relationships, the Oakland-raised talent goes way back with her new video." [29] Sarah Michel of VH1 praised the wardrobe and choreography in the video and also interpreted that it ends just like "almost all of those situations". [27] An editor from Singersroom felt that Cole gave her love interest a "subtle payback" before leaving him and described the speakeasy as a "Cotton Club-styled venue". [30] Garwood of Ebony felt that Cole had decided "to take things into her own hands by getting revenge on the man who stole her heart" in the video. [19]

Live performances

On January 31, 2017, Cole performed a preview of "Incapable" live on Jimmy Kimmel Live! , following the performance of its preceding single, "You".

[32] Cole performed the song for The Wendy Williams Show on October 19, 2017, while wearing a white pantsuit with a red fur coat and top hat and being accompanied by male backup dancers. [33] [34] Antwane Folk of Rated R&B described the performance as "heartfelt" and compared the outfit worn by Cole during the performance to the signature look of fictional character Carmen Sandiego, while an editor from ThisisRnb described the performance as "stirring". [35] [34]

On October 22, 2017, Cole performed the song during BET Her's inaugural television special BET Her Fights: Breast Cancer, and during the reunion of the fourth season of Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood the following day.

[37] Trent Fitzgerald of The Boombox described the performance as "dazzling" and declared that it was a "sexy rendition" of the song.
