Some deliciously made visuals for the Dublin artist’s new song from an upcoming mixtape.
Dublin/Sierra Leonean rapper Ahmed, With Love’s upcoming mixtape comes out October 11th.
Songs that feature on the record include ‘Whatchimacallit‘ and ‘Help Wanted’, along with new song the owin-produced vibey ‘Yes, Of Course’ which comes with a sumptuous visual feast directed by Luke Conroy and Conor Tonor (see the YT for credits in full).
The mixtape has a stated Brazilian influence.
“For this project my strongest thread and source of thematic inspiration and creative approach is definitely from Brazilian music. I’m a huge fan of 70s, 80s and 90s Brazilian music: bossa nova, samba, tropicalia, MPB, etc. The likes of Gal Costo, Joao Gilberto, Jorge Ben Jor, Caetano Veloso, Djaven, Tim Maia… the list goes on.”
