Ari Lennox Explores Potential New Love on Vibrant Single ‘Twin Flame’

American R&B Crooner Ari Lennox is gearing up for the release of her upcoming album Vacancy and has recently dropped her latest single ‘Twin Flame’. With this song, Ari is experimenting with different sounds, and ‘Twin Flame is a great example of her matching the tone of the song with the meaning behind the lyrics. Known for her more emotional backdrop and vocals that are scorned with desire, lust and heartbreak, this time Ari is bringing a more colourful palette to the table and using her voice to showcase a level of hope and excitement in a potential new love chapter. 

With a flawless run of singles from the Vacancy album including ‘Soft Girl Era’ and title track ‘Vacancy’, Ari makes no exception with ‘Twin Flame’. This latest single shows that she can still bring the same Ari Lennox flair that we all know and love but combine it with a pop sensibility that her fans have not yet seen her explore. As Vacancy is her third album, Ari is making sure that she can create songs that her day one fans will love, whilst also refusing to be defined by genre labels and expectations that could potentially hold her back in the long run. 

With rich vocals and layered harmonies, creating a warm, vibrant tone, Ari is allowing her imagination to be free and explore all the possibilities with her potential ‘Twin Flame’, allowing her excitement to seep into the crevices of the song. 

Just before the 2-minute mark, Ari flips the script production wise and allows a new dimension to infiltrate the track. The sudden distorted, chopped and screwed beat change, creates a darker element, which mirrors Ari’s doubts taking over. Her echoing cries “Do you feel the same?” are entangled with a deep yearning that Ari is able to do so effortlessly. This juxtaposition within the song, creates a tension that is palpable, and signals that Ari can explore her ever growing sound, whilst also making sure her day one fans are fed. 

Ari Lennox has seen a Vacancy in the mainstream R&B world and is looking to take up that space with her upcoming album.
