LOV touches the soul in her latest single, G.O.S. A track that speaks to the fortitude of womenhood
LOV delivers a colourful, soulful experience in her latest single G.O.S., a soft yet powerful ballad, where LOV speaks on her faith, her relationship with her own womanhood, and her and other women’s need for resilience in the face of adversity. The feelings evoked by LOV bear a strong emotional resonance with inspirational messaging, which is accompanied by powerful vocals
LOV’s vocal delivery is nothing short of remarkable, with a certain rawness and passion that felt in every line delivered over the velvety, sultry instrumental. From the divine strums of the harp to the angelic hums in the background, the layers that make up this track serve only heighten the brilliantly mixed vocals of LOV.
There is a certain spirituality that is felt in the lyrics of this track that separates it from other tracks of a similar sound. She speaks on how faith is the centerpiece of her reality and how she prays that the energy that flows through her may flow into the listener.
This energy stems not just from a divine source but also from the strength of prior generations, moving her forward.
Her relationship with her womanhood is often highlighted in the track and the strength necessary for women to operate in the world we live in, a melancholic but inspirational message that makes this track the perfect listen for anyone going through a hard time.
The Treaty 6 Saskatchewan-based, LOV is one of the emerging artistic voices coming from the Canadian music space, who is known for her empowering lyrics, composing tracks with deep references to UK soul artists, with clear inspiration from artists such as Sade and Adele. With the direction LOV is going, I’m eager to see where she takes her art in the future.
