Produced by Tiwezi and The Animal Farm, and engineered by award-winning Nigerian producer Tee-Y Mix, who has worked with the likes of Burna Boy, Davido and D’Banj, ‘Roll Wiv U’ is a sexy pop track with glorious dancehall and Afrobeats sensibilities, which sees El’Vee letting their hair down and having fun on the track, while showing off their artistic versatility and paying homage to their favourite dancehall classics, with guest star Peruzzi adding the perfect cherry on top.
Speaking about their inspiration for ‘Roll Wiv U’ and how the accompanying visuals came about, El’Vee say, “the song tells the tale of a confident woman, who is comfortable in her femininity and sexuality. She isn’t afraid to be acquainted with a man that catches her fancy. She is also not distracted by the uncertainties that this rollercoaster might bring. We shot the video at the Man Cave in Lagos, Nigeria, and it really embodies the dancehall vibe of the track and its feel-good nature”.
