Get ready for an exhilarating musical adventure as the dynamic hip-hop duo, LARWOOD & KOH, team up with the captivating vocalist Safiyyah in their latest track release, “SOON”.
The newly assembled pair, LARWOOD & KOH, came together serendipitously in late 2019. KOH, a former metal bassist hailing from Kingston-upon-Thames, stumbled upon the intriguing content of Lancashire-born, London-raised songwriter LARWOOD on Instagram and was compelled to reach out.
Following a series of insightful exchanges and fruitful collaborations, the duo known as LARWOOD & KOH was born. A year into their creative partnership, they debuted their first EP Score, a dynamic collection that includes guest artist Verbz and offers listeners a tantalizing preview of the pair’s exceptional potential.
“SOON” serves as a powerful anthem for dreamers and a resolute hymn of hope. It motivates listeners to chase their dreams relentlessly, even when immediate success appears elusive.
The track delves into an array of profound themes, touching upon faith, familial bonds, and the monotonous nature of daily life. The uniquely compelling voice of Safiyyah plays a starring role, adding a layer of allure and depth to the composition.
The track’s imagery evokes a profound sense of familiarity, encapsulating the routine experiences within one’s surroundings.
Here, London is portrayed as a backdrop where artists engage in everyday activities like commuting on the tube, hailing a cab, riding a bus, or simply going for a stroll. This presents a vivid picture of yearning for change and fosters a firm belief in its eventual arrival.
The chorus resonates with these shared sentiments, amplifying the connection with the listeners. KOH’s dynamic production prowess is further elevated by LARWOOD’s versatile flow and transparent lyrical expressions.
While the duo’s music is heavily inspired by US boom-bap, it retains an unmistakable English identity, with elements of grime and UK rap forming its core. The groundbreaking hip-hop group Public Enemy has recognized their talent, as their song “And You Don’t Stop” was featured on Chuck D’s radio show.
