Known as the vocalist behind Netflix's stirring Blood & Water theme song, singer-songwriter Frya displays sonic versatility on her debut album. Exploring romance, self-confidence and heartbreak over its 11 tracks, Balance strikes a rhythmic chord between Afrobeats, reggae, dancehall and soulful R&B. Capturing her nomadic sensibilities and oscillating between vulnerability and boldness, the Zimbabwean artist born Rutendo Maregere owns her eclectic sound. This sees her craft engaging flavours (over instrumentation helmed by Mr Kamera, GT Beats and the Grammy Award-winning Andre Harris) that fuse localised rhythms, pop melodies and tropical percussion. The ethereal “For You” swells through its amorous keys before the upbeat, saxophone-laden “B.D.E” exudes women's empowerment, while “Calculate” folds sultry lyricism into tropical acoustics and “Fire Fire” soundtracks a sweaty night at the club. Delivering a range of emotions across these varying moods, Frya navigates the intricacies of both self-growth and intimate relationships.
