Houston artist Dende releases new single Round Trip to Atlanta as his 2022 debut single, championing a seductive lilt to his voice that mesmerises listeners.

 The sultry and sensual R&B record sees Dende sing about the time he met a stripper. With uncompromisingly stellar vocals that showcase depth and range, the crooner floats atop a production built around simple yet hard hitting synths and bass patterns.

 Sprinkling his flows with subtle harmonies, Dende creates a song that will invoke nostalgic feelings in his listeners. Round Trip to Atlanta follows the successful release of his Pregnancy Pack EP, which left fans excited for more of his soulful sound.

Dende on Round Trip to Atlanta: 

“Recently I’ve been finding myself inside strip clubs more often than not and I became enamored with the art of it. One night when I was talking to a dancer she started telling me about her hopes and dreams then gave me the best lap dance of my life. I had to write a song about the woman that stole my heart for the night to let her know I’d fly to see her if I had to.”

 Known as being one of the leaders of the new wave of versatile artists. Dende is known for his unique ability to fuse soulful R&B powered by his compelling vocal range, with artful and witty rap verses. Multi-talented, he can song write, produce and engineer as well.

At the end of the track, he hints at the song being inspired by T-Pain’s In Love With A Stripper, the classic early 2000s R&B joint with distorted vocals repeating the lyrics to the song. Not one unfamiliar to performing, he has also opened for artists like Swae Lee, Gallant, Bun B, and more.
