Listen: Kwabs Unveils ‘Pray For Love’ Track [Prod. Plan B]
Slick, emotive track is release on 6th May. Kwabs plays this year’s Latitude Festival.
Kwabena Sarkodee aka Kwabs has announced details of his new single, ‘Pray For Love’. Previous tracks came produced by Vienna-based 4AD signing SOHN. This new one’s attracted an even more familiar name: Ben Drew aka Plan B.
There’s no cussing about ‘Broken Britain’ to be found here. Instead it’s a slick, ultra-emotive track built out of marching drums and heart-of-sleeve vocals. Regardless of producer, there’s little doubting Kwabs’ ability to paint emotions in shades that don’t belong on other songwriters’ palettes.
‘Pray For Love’ is out 6th May.
