PREMIÄR: Don’t You Give Up On Me – Joshua Idehen

Sol i nästan hela landet, kylan har kommit tillbaka men vårkänslorna sitter kvar i kroppen. Vad passar bättre än att tonsätta dagen med en upplyftande kombination av musik och spoken word? Idag har vi äran att stå för premiären av låten Don’t You Give Up On Me av Joshua Idehen, med Ludvig Parment som producent.

Självklart tog vi tillfället i akt och bad Joshua berätta lite mer om sig själv och låten:

“My name is Joshua Idehen, I am a spoken word artist/musician, a British Nigerian currently living in Sweden. I am working with Ludvig Parment on my first solo project. This was the first beat Ludvig [producer] sent me, and I pretty much finished the lyrics by that day’s end. It’s a poem about second chances, depression and forgiving yourself. Maybe it’s just me, but I feel people are too quick with each other these days: I know I’ve been guilty of it at times. This is a plea for a bit more patience with each other, and for me to be a bit more patient with myself.”
