Sway and surrender to grateful grooves with Positivelation’s eclectic fusion soul track, ‘Thankyou’!
If there was a track to make as your summer anthem, this would be it. With a sublime genre-fusing soundscape, power-packed R&B, pop, and reggae rap vocals and a radiant message of love, hope, resillence and unity.
‘Thankyou’ opens onto spacious, dreamy arrangements. Soft, blissful vocals, a sparse piano melody, and minimal beats make for an instantly engaging, head-bobbing listen. Subtle bass grooves and layers of backing vocals sweep us into a swelling group chorus.
‘Thankyou for the sun…..’ Postivelation affirms in a leisurely but intent-packed delivery. It’s not getting gratitude for the sake of it. There’s a magnetic pull to their message unfolding here. But its just getting started.
On the beat, a wicked, razor-sharp reggae rap flow begins. His vocals impart a compelling cultural narrative, taking the melody and groove out to the streets. Yet, the emotional tone is balanced and sharply focused. It operates in stark contrast to the uplifting, dreamy pop vocals.
Over its 3 min runtime, ‘Thankyou’ leaves you feeling a warm contentment and blesses you with a crucial reminder of what’s really important in this life.
Positvelation is a soul-charged, progressive urban fusion project rooted in both the UK and USA, blending movement, melody, and message. Born from decades of creativity, life experience, and a desire to uplift, the group brings together seasoned performers whose journeys span international stages, underground sound systems, and transformational life paths.
The heartbeat of the sound pulses through Nybacush, a London-born dancer, choreographer, drummer, and vocalist of Antiguan and Jamaican heritage, and The Imperial AlaskaLP, a US-born DJ, MC, and vocalist whose transatlantic journey has carried him from the Miami bass scene to Birmingham’s conscious music movement.
