Singer/songwriter Elina Filice and spoken word artist/rapper Claudia Crampton have teamed up to release a new single ‘Lying’. This laid black alternative R&B tune drifts upon a mellow guitar hook and warm bass while the intricate hip-hop beats provide texture and buoyancy. Jazz laced guitar delicately weaves between the dreamy sweet melody, catchy chorus and lush vocal harmonies creating a soothing tone. The brisk raps roll over the verses with a sleek fluid flow while charming keys and the relaxing instrumental backdrop provide a breezy chilled contrast. ‘Lying’ is a well crafted tune which boasts the talent, sleek musicianship and deft songwriting of both Elina Filice and Claudia Crampton.
About the track Elina says, “Fascination with the concept of Lying inspired the song. So much of our lives, on a small and large scale, with how we relate to ourselves and each other, is based on lies. The lies we tell ourselves to get by, the lies we tell to either harm or protect each other.”
Claudia says, “My verses narrate the story of a relationship that has had its many ups and downs but has ultimately reached its end. The verses reflect the turmoil and hardship that come with an unfaithful partner and the difficulties in coping with the heartache.”
