ABRA a/k/a THΔ DΔRKWΔVE DUCHESS is an Atlanta based singer/producer on Awful Records and she’s released her trippy, 90’s reminiscent R&B EP titled BLQ VELVET featuring 6 songs of futuristic soul.
You can hear ABRA’s emotion and depth in each and every song. In “U Go I Go,” her production, as well as her voice, is hitting you in every direction – there is no escaping her melacholic cries. In “Make It,” her vocals simply flow and lead you down and down, while “Unwise” is a transition to a much darker place – a bit reminiscent of Aaliyah and Timbaland.
The track “I Guess” is a more sensitive song that goes into a synthy bounce. On “Fade 2 Blaq,” you can instantly hear her shedding her feelings of abandonment, and soon you’re uplifted with empowerment. The track breaks down into a sky-falling anthem, and takes off behind a trap cadence. Finally, “Love & Power,” the last song on the EP, comes stepping in with a strong statement as the breaks come in behind her.
