Donyay shares his latest single and music video, ‘Swipe.’ Co-produced and inspired by his friend Dreu Bandz, the soundtrack outlines the themes of rage and aggression and dilemma, despondence. The song is an ultimate lo-fi banger but also gets reflective in the middle where the artist says, “Only trust the ones in my family and do anything to make them happy.”
The lyrics probably stem from the fact that Dreu was killed after three weeks from producing the soundtrack. Looming from a dark place, Donyay’s song pays an homage to his friend and all others who succumb to the vices of aggression. Serving as a reminder of his friend’s legacy, Donyay wanted to reel out of the incident, and music truly helped him achieve that.
With ‘Swipe,’ Donyay strives to call out the injustice in the world, and at the same time, implores the audience to only rely on their family and friends. It was wrong what happened to his friend, but even that didn’t stop the artist from falling back to music in times of need. Listen to this incredibly raw soundtrack from Donyay to get your playlist the spice it needs!
