Self-empowerment is something that Adée has recently been touching on a lot in her music. The Swedish pop/soul singer, rapper and songwriter’s latest single “Verify” reinforces the need for self validation amidst the frustrations that musicians face.

The fact that, in the new music industry landscape, numbers are prioritized over impact, artists are under immense pressure. “Verify” tries to shed light on the effect of this, with Adée calling on other musicians to share their experiences through a freestyle challenge. The track’s production infuses synths over a laid-back beat.

“Verify” is the follow up to Adée’s album Forward.
