Soul-pop and Afro-Fusion singer/songwriter, Anabel Rose, has just released her debut single, Love Me or Die, on June 22nd, 2023.
Complete with ethereal vocals and immersive synths that lure you into a dreamy soundscape, the pop-rock and soul-pop fusion track takes on the guise of a love song. And just as you lose yourself in its enchanting melody, the lyrics hit you like a cosmic wake-up call, catapulting you back to your most desperate and disillusioning moments of what was mistaken for love.
A collaborative piece with Ghanaian producer/engineer kxlab and Ghanaian guitarist Julian Andoh, Love Me or Die invites listeners into a colorful interpretation of the kaleidoscopic feelings that come with infatuation. They are treated to the same classic synth lead, pluck, and pad sounds from classic Roland synthesizers like the Juno-DS and Jupiter-80 and the eclectic blend of pop and punk in the guitar and drum sections. This song works to introduce audiences to the singer’s wide vocal range whilst bringing to light her lyrical finesse.
Anabel Rose is a young singer on a self-driven path of sonic exploration, reimagining the sounds of her formative years with the exciting genres and sounds that are taking over the listener-scape in West Africa. The Ghanaian-Filipino singer/songwriter is on a lifelong journey with music and Love Me Or Die is but another step on her said journey.
