The moment the beat drops, E.L’s words feel spiritually inclined, just as the title suggests. His vocals quickly captivate, reaching into the recesses of your soul to tug at your emotions.
It all comes together like a beautiful prayer, one that uplifts, heals, and restores calm. And honestly, what’s not to love?
With releases that often sway between hardcore Rap and loud bangers rooted in Azonto and Afrobeats, ‘Holy’ feels quite different, and it’s a pleasant surprise. Gone is the flex and braggadocio that raised the “BAR”, his flagship mixtape series. In the absence of such bravado lies a deep emotional expression that echoes the heavenly softness of Soul music.
