On Friday, July 26th, 2024, South African artist Ivy Leeg released a new single titled “Linger On,” featuring Fentse, Barry Staxx, Carter IV, DoouShi, and NovaTron. This song can only be described as three minutes of pure bliss.
Ivy Leeg, a Pretoria-born artist, refuses to be confined to a single genre. From hip hop to the smooth melodies of R&B, house, and electronic music, he effortlessly navigates diverse soundscapes, establishing himself as a unique talent in the music industry.
It wouldn’t be right to talk about Ivy Leeg without mentioning where I first discovered him. My introduction to his music was on Nino Fresco’s “Fly For Magriza” project, particularly on the opening track, “Pilot.” Interestingly, I also encountered Fentse through “Fly For Magriza ” on two occasions, “Kasi Girl” and “Sensitive” .
To me, “Linger On” evokes a sense of warmth and joy, making it feel like the perfect soundtrack for a summer road trip with a loved one. Its smooth, soulful melodies evoke a sense of lightness and joy, as if I am basking in the warmth of the sun. To top it off, Fentse’s beautiful voice on the hook and Ivy Leeg’s smooth , captivating verse create a dreamy, almost ethereal atmosphere that leaves me feeling uplifted and deeply connected to the music. It’s the kind of song that brings a smile to my face and a flutter to my heart, making me feel alive and in love with life.
This song is a seamless fusion of electronic music, hip hop, and R&B, characterized by smooth, soulful, and jazzy intricate rhythms. Its infectious nature leaves a vibrant, groovy vibe that feels both nostalgic and fresh. Fentse’s beautiful voice on the hook perfectly complements Ivy Leeg’s smooth yet swoony verse, delivered in his signature flow. From just one listen , I felt fully present and connected to the moment, leaving me with a feeling of pure bliss.
