British-Mauritian singer Lavaud shares Roll on Me single
British-Mauritian singer Lavaud has released a new single titled ‘Roll on Me’ featuring Tiwa Savage, Patoranking, Reekado Banks and Kanis.
The track, out via Saint & Citizen Music, is available for streaming and download on major streaming platforms.
‘Roll on Me’ is rooted in a simmering, effortlessly smooth groove that begins with an entrancing bass-guitar melody taking centre stage, instantly drawing listeners into its hypnotic embrace.
Tapping into the rhythms of Afro-dancehall, the dynamic collective of globally diverse artists team up for the feel-good single, which also features superstar producers Kel-P, who’s produced for Burna Boy, Wizkid, Rema, and Trakmatik.
The rich and warm nature of the production provides the perfect canvas for Lavaud to showcase her typically stunning vocals as she continues to assert herself and raise the bar within the UK R&B scene, whilst bringing together some of the biggest and best artists in the Afrobeats and Latin scenes for an infectious creation that skillfully spans continents with irresistible ease.
Speaking about the track, Lavaud said: “I’m so excited to be working with such iconic and generational talent. I love how all our cultures blend to create something timeless, that’s the beauty of music.”
Remarking about the collaboration, Tiwa Savage said: “When artists come together like this, something magical happens. This song is so special and I’m loving everybody’s energy.”
“We’re coming to give you a soundtrack of the season. Big love to everyone involved, this is one of those undeniable moments in music culture,” Reekado Banks said.
Hailing from Hackney in East London with roots in Mauritius, Lavaud began her musical journey guided by her father, who exposed her to various genres like zouk and R&B.
In 2020, she showcased her musical talent with a unique Afro-fusion take on Reekado Banks’ ‘Rora’ and later released ‘In This Room’, a song capturing the emotions of global lockdown with her distinctive Neo-R&B style. In the following year, her collaboration with Reekado Banks on ‘Oh My’ further highlighted her versatility, and finally, she solidified her status as an emerging star in contemporary music with her debut EP King Vaud.
