Avara’s latest single, “LIGHT IT” with REHMA, is oozing with soul and sensuality from start to finish, making this a release ideal for late-night listens or unwinding moments.
My first encounter with Avara was through the track “been some time (need u)”, and since then she has been on my radar thanks to her distinctive brand of r&b. In many ways, “LIGHT IT” is a celebration of the divine feminine and this is exhibited through the fierce yet charming lyricism and the smooth instrumental section. The glossy synths offer a lush soundscape while the bass arrangements and the drums add depth and movement, creating a groove that’s impossible to resist. Aimed at women, POC, and music producers, “LIGHT IT” explores the dreamlike tension of falling in love where reality blurs with fantasy.
