EMERGING ARTIST SZARR RELEASES NEW SINGLE ‘OCEAN’
Multi-talented Swiss musician Szarr discovered his passion for music when he began writing songs on an old guitar at 11. Since then, he has honed his skills as a singer, songwriter, and producer sharing his art and unique sound with the world.
His music has been greatly influenced by his multicultural upbringing, which includes parents who are native to the Balkans and who have traveled extensively. This background has helped him to cross genres and produce a sound that is uniquely his own.
He returns with his brand-new single ‘Ocean’. The genre-blend of pop and indie infused with elements of afro and reggaeton, make this a flavourful release from Szarr.
The summer vibe on the production of ‘Ocean’ features instrumentation of drums, marimba, bongos, electric guitar, and synth. The freeing sound is paired with the captivating vocals from Szarr that will invite listeners to groove along.
The song is a love letter to the ocean that Szarr wrote. When he got the idea, he was in Mexico and started adding drums to his digital studio and chopping up vocals. Once he got back home, he finished the song and came up with lyrics that fit the sentiment of first-time love.
“A love letter to somebody very beautiful, in my case the ocean itself,” Szarr comments on the track.
‘Ocean’ is available on all streaming platforms.
As if dropping a three-pack project filled with bangers was not eye-catching enough, Burgeoning Ghanaian talent NSRB Dray has served another masterpiece with the release of his new single “Eye for Eye.”
Known for singing from raw emotions, NSRB Dray takes it a step further in this new release where he talks about being in a state of despair and self-doubt.
However, there’s no doubt about his intentions on the record. NSRB Dray goes in hard from the first beat drop on the YNT Deezy-produced track.
On “Eye for Eye,” he glides on the boppy instrumentals for two minutes straight, highlighting the world’s abundance of greed, unforgiveness, ego, and pride.
He opens with his version of the famous Mahatma Gandhi saying, “An eye for an Eye leaves the world blind,” before letting his baritone vocals shine through what can pass a “here’s how the world works” pep talk to the listeners.
The record boasts of superior rawness draped around melodious saxophone sounds by Sam Aryee, missing in so many fine-tuned street-preaching jams lately. NSRB Dray’s delivery stands out as the lyrics pierce the ears and hearts of the listeners to nod and note down.
He shared the reason for his choice of lyrics exclusively to Amplify Ghana, stating that his never-give-up spirit pushed him to send a message of hope to his audience.
“Eye for Eye is a music piece written in a state of disrepair and self-doubt. It talks about not giving up and staying well composed in every situation,” he explained.
After dropping “PLAN B” which touched on a similar subject matter, last year, this new release could easily pass as his master plan, but the singer’s unpredictability and versatility means fans can expect different sounds from him.
“Eye for Eye,” is NSRB Dray’s 2025 welcome message. It was mixed by the singer and mastered by talented sound engineer QID Korle.
