“Gucci Prada” Yung Saber Ft Prince Akeem
A London-born dancehall, rising hip-hop artist, freelance A&R, and actor, Yung Saber, has returned to the music scene with his newly released single and video, “Gucci Prada,” on January 26th!
The Single: Gucci Prada
Yung Saber’s new 2-minute single, “Gucci Prada,” begins with a strong beginning. The auto-tuned drums and kicks are similar to the trap music genre. Then, Saber’s bass voice overtakes the track by singing lyrics showcasing his living his best life in the music video.
The song follows a linear and catchy modern spin on the traditional dancehall genre. At the start, there were a few instances of Afrobeat on the backend. During the middle of the track, Yung Saber introduced his feature, Prince Akeem. Prince Akeem’s part was slowed down in the song with a subtle beat drop. Prince Akeem’s auto-tuned vocals and the slow-motion visuals complement one another as the song resumes the chorus.
Lastly, the song ends with a fade with Yung Saber as the final shot. The dancehall song is taking a storm in the UK music scene.
