WE’LL BE TOGETHER

RIVER

RGM RATING ()

A pop-rap song coated in 80s nostalgia and vocals.

RIVER is a Stockholm-based singer, songwriter, and producer. In addition, she also knows how to play multiple instruments. RIVER describes her music style as blunt and empowered with honesty, along with soul-quaking vocals and the sassy spirit of a vintage pinup model. Her music exudes every one of these characteristics from the seams. As a result, the themes in RIVER’s songs usually center around her lifetime obsession with soul, experiences from traveling the world, and her charisma. Right now, she only has two songs available on her Spotify, Apple Music, and Pandora. The latest of these two is the pop hit “WE’LL BE TOGETHER.”

“WE’LL BE TOGETHER” is a romantic, groovy, love ballad that boasts nostalgic vibes. Of course, it comes with a modernized twist of an upbeat rhythm that makes you want to dance. At the same time, while RIVER’s voice is reminiscent of Madonna, rapper Lute joins in to make it special. His presence adds another dimension to the dynamic song. The different sounds combine to make something sensual and sweet, forming a product of the 80s in modern times. So, stream RIVER’s “WE’LL BE TOGETHER” today so you can get thrown back into decades-old tunes.
