‘POLYGAMOUS ENTITY’ EP
Emerging from the dynamic music scenes of Ghana and Nigeria, the exceptionally talented singer-songwriter Dan Drizzy has finally unveiled his highly anticipated EP, "Polygamous Entity." Having steadily built anticipation among his devoted fan base, Dan Drizzy has been treating them to a diverse range of singles over the past year. With the release of this captivating EP, he firmly establishes himself as a rising star in the music industry.
"Polygamous Entity" is a six-track project that exemplifies Dan Drizzy's artistic growth, showcasing his remarkable ability to seamlessly blend diverse musical genres. From sultry late-night R&B to infectious afrobeats and irresistible afro-pop rhythms, the EP effortlessly incorporates elements of amapiano, skillfully complementing his velvety vocal prowess. The EP opens with the track "Penisillin," a captivating piece that accentuates Drizzy's charismatic allure. Set against a backdrop of slow afro swing instrumentation, he cleverly utilizes wordplay by replacing the "C" in penicillin with an "S," creating a sound resembling a male reproductive organ ("Penis"illin).
In the soul-baring track "2 Kidney," Dan Drizzy wears his emotions on his sleeve, delivering poignant lines such as "I don't mind / I'd give you my two kidneys." This heartfelt expression showcases his willingness to make sacrifices for love. The production of "2 Kidney" stands out as one of Dan Drizzy's most extraordinary experiences. However, it's the dancehall-infused production on the third track, "10k Girls," featuring his favored collaborators $pacely & Spl daddy, that truly elevates the transition between both songs. With a tinge of heartbreak in his voice, Dan Drizzy fearlessly channels his frustrations, making it clear to his former love interest that there are countless females—literally 10,000—ready to join his journey as his career continues to gather momentum with each passing day.
As we delve deeper into the core of this project, a profound understanding of its essence unfolds. The fourth track, "King Solo," serves as a concise reference to the legendary figure of "King Solomon," drawing intriguing parallels. Within this song, Dan Drizzy portrays himself as a polygamous entity, captivating women not only with his physical allure but also emphasizing his financial prowess, which he skillfully employs to entice the opposite sex. Collaborating with two talented friends, Tee and Wes7ar 22, Dan Drizzy presents a remarkable modern dancehall rhythm in "King Solo." With a seductive chorus delivered by Tee, two compelling verses from Dan Drizzy himself, and a gritty hook performed by Wes7ar 22, "King Solo" can be described as a well-rounded musical offering. The song satisfies various musical cravings, showcasing the collective talent of the artists involved.
Adding an additional layer of allure to the project's sonic landscape is the precursor track, "International," featuring the award-winning Ghanaian-British singer, rapper, and songwriter, Eugy. This collaboration propels the project's appeal to unprecedented heights, further enhancing its sonic palette. As the EP reaches its culmination, we encounter "Manje," a captivating track infused with amapiano elements and written in a blend of Zulu and broken English. The title "Manje" translates to "Now" in Zulu, and this electrifying banger consists of two distinct parts. Cape Town-based singer Adeline London explores the theme of instant love, while Dan Drizzy delves into the realm of instant lust that comes with a price. Serving as a perfect closer to the project, "Manje" stands as a testament to its overall brilliance.
With resolute determination, Dan Drizzy fearlessly embraces his innate brilliance, assuming complete control over his artistic journey, as evidenced by “Polygamous Entity”. Revealing his truest essence, he draws inspiration from a rich tapestry of influences, forging a unique style that is undeniably distinctive and unmistakably his own.
