Imagine stepping into a world where the warm crackle of vinyl soul classics meets the electrifying pulse of trap R&B.ย Lekan, the first generation Nigerian-American R&B luminary recently named toย Spotify’s 2024 R&B Artists to Watch list, returns today with the release of his new single โ614โ available onย Friday, March 8thย on all digital platforms viaย The Orchardย โย LISTEN HERE.
Blending the timeless with the contemporary, Lekan introduces a sound that’s both refreshingly modern and deeply nostalgic. Masterfully blending R&Bโs depth with soulโs warmth, “614” is an evocative journey through soulful melodies and uplifting beats, painting vivid pictures of resilience and loyalty.
As the narrative unfolds, there’s a palpable shift, a metamorphosis that transports the listener into the second act: a realm where the beats harden, the bass deepens, with Lekanโs voice navigating through the rhythm. This two-chapter journey through “614” is not just a testament to Lekanโs musical prowess but a bridge spanning the chasm between the ancestral echoes of soul and the sharp, sleek lines of todayโs R&B.
๏ปฟ”614″ stands out for its inspiring message and Lekan’s rich and emotive vocal delivery, which will be on full display during his set at Sol Blume Festival in Sacramento, CA on May 3rd.
