Ayda Rose Shares New Single ‘Damn’
Ayda Rose embodies what it means to work hard and hustle to follow your dreams. She returns with her sophomore single ‘Damn’ infused with dreamy and emotive tones that will capture the listener’s attention from the very first note.
The slow-burning and delicate R&B production on ‘Damn’ features guitars, keys, and bass. The earnest instrumentation is paired with Adya Rose’s distinctive and captivating tonality in her voice and expressive melodies to create a sentimental experience for the listener.
Adya Rose uses her unmistakable voice and creates soulful melodies and heartfelt lyrics into a unique sound. With influences from the likes of SZA, Amy Winehouse, and Stevie Wonder, you can hear how she takes her inspiration from her love of soul and perfectly blends it with urban electronic sounds.
Adya Rose penned ‘Damn’ during a difficult time in her life that she experienced with the person she loved. Writing in real-time or retrospectively, this particular track is raw. She went to the studio and felt a creative block, but once her producer picked up the guitar and began to play some chords, the song came to life.
Ayda Rose creates a unique aesthetic in her music with her memorable vocals, soulful melodies, and poignant lyrics. In her most candid production to date, she worked closely with singer-songwriter cam Bloomfield and well-known artist Switch (formerly of major lazer) to keep her inner circle close. She calls the project ‘soulful with a modern twist, both old school and contemporary’, and in each song, she delves into topics of real-life love and heartache.
On the song, Ayda Rose says, “‘Damn’ is a song of heartache and pain, falling in love then longing for someone who isn’t ready. It’s a raw and stripped-back R&B, a personal story of love and loss.”
Dmillyyy kicked off the month of love with the lead single, “Balance.” “Balance” was Dmillyyy’s first song of the year. The record served as a teaser for his new EP, Cupid Pack, which was released on Valentine’s Day. Cupid Pack is a five-track EP that dives into the intricacies of love. The EP is an eclectic body of work as it utilizes various genres of music, such as Alternative R&B, Melodic Rap, and Reggaeton.
Cupid Pack starts off with the song, “Thunderstruck.” The track is a record that features a wavy beat and Dmillyyy’s smooth flow. The sound is reminiscent of Jaden. The next track, “Balance,” is a fan favorite and for good reason. “Balance” has a bouncy beat that makes listeners want to groove. The record has a Drake feel to it. The catchy hook reels you in immediately. Dmillyyy cleverly sprinkles in some Spanish lyrics, which are a prelude to the third track on the EP. “Q.M. Interludio” follows “Balance.” The Latin Music interlude showcases the versatility that Dmillyyy possesses. The penultimate track, “WYGD,” is a downtempo, love song that is enchanting. The tune has a sample that blends well with the theme of the song. “WYGD” sets up the EP’s closer as “Madness” is another slow jam. “Madness” is the perfect finale. The sensual track embodies passion and love.
The EP’s introspective/extrospective take on love provides all listeners with songs that resonate with them. Although each song has its own flavor and unique sound, they still connect and carry a cohesive message. “Cupid Pack is an image painted to describe different emotions that may arise for particular love interests.” Dmillyyy continues: “Sometimes it isn’t that serious and just the feeling that you want to cherish. Sometimes the other’s existence makes you want to question everything and reflect back on your own life. Either way, both parties are living in the moment and letting that lead the way.” Cupid Pack is only the beginning as Dmillyyy has much in store for the year. While waiting for his next masterpiece, be sure to show love to the immaculate EP that is Cupid Pack.
