Toronto's Ekelle Dazzles in Her 80’s Inspired New Single/Video "Slide"

Ekelle kicks off her album campaign with a new upbeat banger for the end of summer. Backed by a big production filled with 808s and major synth, ‘Slide’ is a sexy 80’s inspired song that you can work out to, dance to, or anything else to. Teaming up again with B. Morales for the beat this song shows off more of Ekelle’s rhyming skills and range as an artist. The inspiration for ‘Slide’ comes from a place of love.

“You hear so many songs of the sexes putting each other down so I wanted to bring back the fun of looking forward to getting together. I especially want my female listeners to know that it's okay to express their sensual desires for someone. Make that move, slide into those DM's!” - Ekelle

The ‘Slide’ single comes with an 80s themed visual to keep the retro vibes going. Sassy girl lyrics and pop culture punchlines are found all through Ekelle’s performance. Ekelle is an artist from Toronto who describes her style as Hood Pop as it combines elements of hip hop, pop, and R&B Music. Ekelle candidly draws on her experiences with happiness, heartbreak, race, and sex to bring forth an authentic voice on every track.
