about

Emerging Alternative South London-based singer-songwriter B-ahwe self-releases her first solo track of the year ‘Ride 2 Nowhere’. Produced by close friend and collaborator, TAMBALA, the dreamlike beat develops into an infectious sonic that beautifully complements B-ahwe's tones. Co-created whilst travelling in Vietnam, the pair successfully channel themes of liberation, escapism and empowerment.

Marking her first release of 2023, ‘Ride 2 Nowhere’ sets a precedent for what to expect in the coming months. Accompanied by a bold video directed by Seb Luke Virgo combining visual disciplines spanning painting, animation and cinematography, the track is an introduction to a whole new B-ahwe world. Having constantly and consistently worked at honing her craft, she’s sitting on an abundance of music which she is excited to share.

lyrics

Ligaments loose since I flew east,
they weren’t tight just in need of space. Craving calm and new for a while
to remind me what I knew all along. Crystallising years of moments,
on the tip of my tongue yet barely audible. Audio books don’t come on shelves,
you write em in your mind for you to hear,

Some boats, no scape-goats,
no labels, deep debates though.
Surrendering to whole new lands
and pausing all my usual plans.

Lover you don’t have to save me,
I ain’t expecting nothing.
Truth is that i’ve got this,
but we could catch a ride to no where. Lover you don’t have to save me,
I ain’t expecting nothing.
Truth is that i’ve got this,
but we could catch a ride to no where.

Foreign objects near my person, personifying sought inclusion. Heightened senses of the elements, eroding my maleficent defences. Riding waves i’ve craved a while, more than ready to be inspired. Pulled back by the memories, learning how to cut these,
being selfish is a skill set child.

Some boats, no scape-goats,
no labels, deep debates though.
Surrendering to whole new lands
and pausing all my usual plans.

Lover you don’t have to save me,
I ain’t expecting nothing.
Truth is that i’ve got this,
but we could catch a ride to no where. Lover you don’t have to save me,
I ain’t expecting nothing.
Truth is that i’ve got this,
but we could catch a ride to no where. Lover you don’t have to save me,
I ain’t expecting nothing.
Truth is that i’ve got this,
but we could catch a ride to no where.

Ride
Breeze clears the conscience we could fly out here
warm night air

Lover you don’t have to save me,
I ain’t expecting nothing.
Truth is that i’ve got this,
but we could catch a ride to no where. Lover you don’t have to save me,
I ain’t expecting nothing.
Truth is that i’ve got this,
but we could catch a ride to no where. Lover you don’t have to save me,
I ain’t expecting nothing.
Truth is that i’ve got this,
but we could catch a ride to no where. Lover you don’t have to save me,
I ain’t expecting nothing.
Truth is that i’ve got this,
but we could catch a ride to no where.
