E.D. deals with themes of cultural and religious transformation on debut single ‘Divin’!
Meet Tobias Simeon, a young artist hailing from Copenhagen, Denmark with West African roots. He goes by the artist name E.D. (Enfant Divin). His captivating debut single ‘Divin’, which was produced by Blue Foundation’s Tobias Wilner, blends elements of alternative hip-hop and acoustic Desert Blues. E.D. is very much influenced by his West African upbringing, and his music draws from genres and artists like Malian Desert Blues and Western icons such as Nirvana, Kid Cudi and Joy Division.
Through his music, E.D. weaves a narrative of personal development, spanning from his upbringing in West Africa to his current life in Denmark, exploring themes of cultural and religious transformation. This artist raps mainly in French, but for those listening the dulcet melodies could easily be those of Post Malone, The Weeknd or Frank Ocean. Explaining more about his creative process, E.D. said- “Music is like an escape room to me. A place where I dare to be honest to myself. If it sounds right the way I want it to, I feel heard. Even if nobody has heard it but me. That gives me peace, for a moment.”
Don’t sleep on this. It’s already a future classic debut in the making. Check out the artist now E.D. (Enfant Divin). ‘Divin’ is released through KØN Records on December 8th 2023.
