Dredw and Essilfie
Dredw and Essilfie’s highly anticipated EP album titled ‘Luv Lyf’ has been released and currently available on all digital streaming platforms.
The producer-DJ and fast-rising singer (both independent) together have been almost impossible to miss, being the duo to watch in Ghana as of late.
Last Thursday, the duo treated some friends and fans to an exclusive listening at Bloombar-Osu, before the project officially hits the platforms for streaming and download.
Among the guests were Moliy, Ria Boss, KalyJay, C-Real, $pacely, Kuvie and other personalities. ‘Luv Lyf’ has five songs that extend into multiple themes suggestive of its title. It’s the perfect offering, boasting of ‘Ride (I Luv It)’, a stunning opener and is arguably the project’s most heartfelt song lyrically. Essilfie squeezes the most out of Dredw’s simple yet classy sounds, introducing plush, vibrant vocals that seek to reassure her lover that they will be happiest together.
Talking about what seems to be a brilliant partnership thus far, Dredw shared: “Compiling ‘Luv Lyf’ was quite a challenge because there were many great songs at our disposal, so it was hard to make a selection. After all, it has been long overdue and we’re glad the fans were patient enough. It is our wish they enjoy it.” After listening, one can definitely tell that Dredw nailed the production on all the songs, with additional saxophone melodies to spice it up.
The project escapes feeling mundane by sidestepping the issue of “filler” songs as well as being blatantly generic.
Dredw and Essilfie lock a lot of calm, confidence and originality in their highly anticipated project, writing it off as one of this year’s best: song for song, which is exactly why ‘Luv Lyf’ is an aesthetic bundle of pure vibes.
