DRAM recruits H.E.R. & watt for his new song titled The Lay Down . Available for download and streaming, the track is a soulful record which he believes is bringing back that true feeling of soul and R&B.
Ahead of the song’s release, DRAM penned an open letter about his journey over the past two years as he gets ready to release his sophomore album.
“No song sings anymore. Ain’t no true SANGERS out there! Nobody’s taking it to the stage. No one’s pouring their heart out,” he wrote. “I’ve always considered myself more of a singer-songwriter so this time around, I’m really owning my R&B and soul roots.”
The song is produced by watt and features drums from Red Hot Chili Peppers’ Chad Smith, bass from prolific session player Pino Palladino, and keyboards from Ivan Neville of Dumpstaphunk.
This bedroom’s nice and candle lit
I’ve been in it dreaming of you
It’s like honey suckle flowers
Stay a couple hours till the morning after
You don’t have to but I’m glad to spend the end of eve with you
