ALEWYA PLAY

London artist Alewya has charmed us with her gritty dance sound, from her collaborative track with Little Simz 'Where's My Lighter', to the rock-injected 'The Code' with Moses Boyd. She's on a roll and has just dropped her fourth single this year, 'Play', arriving alongside a dance-centred video. 'Play' combines a club beat with left-field production, where rhythm and bass are at the core of the track, creating a cathartic energy. Alewya's enticing voice sings, 'Don't mind if I play, just something I want to feel with you'. Speaking on the track, Alewya shares “’Play’ is a song about my love and gratitude for pleasure and play and how it has and can unlock deeper feelings of connections. It’s overtly feminine and innately primal and most of all light and fun!”. Check it out! -Ellie Rose-Davies
