Sometimes love isn’t as we expect. It has two big faces and we’ve all experienced both: the one that makes you feel alive and the one that kills you inside. Dave Luv shows us his most vulnerable side with his latest single, Some Days, where he talks about that love that has marked you so much that even though its absence is necessary, the pain consumes you day after day.
With millions of views on Youtube, Dave describes himself as “Your new favorite artist,” and it’s clear that he’s working towards that. After presenting seven singles throughout 2023, giving his audience what they want, Some Days is the first release of 2024, so we expect him to keep that energy high. Blending elements of lo-fi and hip-hop, the Chicago rapper is gearing up his place in the scene.
In his tracks, Dave explores themes such as struggle, love, and life’s inconsistencies, always from his personal point of view and unafraid to show his soul or vulnerability. This time was no exception. So, with lyrics like “I’m afraid to fall in love / Because of you / I cannot trust,” we see a sincere Dave who isn’t afraid to share his experiences, which in the end, end up being those of many.
Special mention to the music video, which feeds into the song’s narrative very effectively. A sad Dave dressed as a depressed clown lives the routine of his life without any excitement, chasing an unattainable happiness. Just an incredible production with an aesthetic that adds intentionality to the message and complements the emotionality of the song.
