The Indie Afrobeat and Pop force that is Rose May Alaba delivers one of the most intoxicating singles of the summer, with the euphoric House groove and soulful, fragmented vocals of a consistently evolving MORE.
Built around sublime production and captivating vocals, MORE is all at once humble and broadly impactful, presenting a mainstream-relevant aura but also intertwining creative traits from the likes of EDM and Afrohouse. Notice the beating heart of the rhythm, the drop to the hook, the anthemic unity and sheer quality of the arrangement.
It’s an infectious pop single but with a clear underground energy and precision to the design, and Rose May Alaba performs every moment of it with purpose and character. From the opening breathy whispers of story, to the resounding repeat of the title, everything is executed brilliantly. An easy hit for the summer months ahead, and I look forward to hearing MORE.
