Starting up the preparations for a music release is no easy task – you are expected to be at your best, and the preparation for it is no less than scary and nerve-wracking at the same time. But for Edie Yvonne, a 15-year-old LA-based singer-songwriter, it is exciting. “2U” is a single that serves as a teaser for her forthcoming EP “GIRLS CODE,” to be released this 8/28 (BE SURE TO MARK YOUR CALENDARS). The expectation is high for this collection as the artist channels her emotions and youthful energy into these alternative rock tracks that are both relatable and great for listeners!
“2U” opens with hard-pounding drums and sophisticated guitar work. You may think that Yvonne would crumble while singing to this track, but instead, she delivered her nonchalance over this person hot on a plate. The singer worked wonders as she sang her logic and unhurried messages, which shows her undeniable prowess in songwriting, making the story rampant with flair and chemistry. Yvonne showed off her “don’t give a damn” attitude through the lines, “You can run away; I won’t get in your way; there’s nothing to say, thanks to you.”.
This is how you treat someone who wants to leave, especially if they’re toxic—by opening the door for them, slamming it shut as they walk out, then locking it in. This song has perfectly encapsulated this vibe with the instrumentation, which has a steady build-up with pounding drums and electric guitar bangers. This song is powerful because it shows you how you have a choice to end something the way you want it. It is rebellious; it is empowering.
We can’t wait to hear more from Yvonne because of this. “2U” has set high expectations for her upcoming EP, as this artist managed to blend her stories and messages with a sound that is of great quality. This has potential, and you wouldn’t want to miss it. So, stream “2U”! Available on all your favorite streaming platforms!
