Amlak RedSquare tackles matters of the heart on his latest single Heart A Love, produced by New York-based Ricky Peela for Peela Productions. It features newcomer KvnG TaT.
Known for his militant sound, Amlak RedSquare went for a different feel on Heart A Love. He said he wanted to send a special message to the ladies.
“I got the beat from Ricky Peela before I left for Europe last year, and while I was in transit to a show in Germany I started to ‘medz’ the track and thought, ‘Why not do something for the ladies.’ I haven’t really done a lot of tracks like that throughout my career so far,” he explained.
He said KvnG TaT’s vibe made it easy for his inclusion on the track.
“While writing the song I felt it needed some serious melody and catchiness to it and I thought why not collaborate with one of the artistes in the RedSquare camp. He also brings vibrancy, catchy lyrics, and melody, plus a new sound that hasn’t really been heard in mainstream reggae and dancehall music,” said Amlak RedSquare.
Heart a Love is scheduled for release on May 7.
Born Omar Gordon, Amlak RedSquare has been doing music professionally for nine years. He has performed on reggae festivals in Jamaica, the Caribbean, and Europe.
He previously collaborated with United Kingdom-based reggae artiste Ras Charmer.
