Still chose love - RydymX (Rap) RydymX joins the blog this week with his latest single, “Still chose love”. A soulful string arrangement and heartfelt chord progression underlay a punchy percussion and crisp rap flow on the track, telling the story of a difficult childhood. But despite being subjected to the roughness of the world around him, the artist still chose love. The instrumentation gives us a nostalgic feel of the 2010s, and there’s a clear narrative here, describing an incident where our artist stood at the crossroads of choosing violence which would put him down a dark path or taking the high road. With an emotive flow paired with a soaring chorus, the track has a lot of heart, transforming the hip hop number into something with Top 40 crossover appeal.
Best Lyric: “Teacher said, oh you won’t be much. Life hit hard no gentle touch.”
