Edidion’s “GHOSTIN’ ME” Is a UK Garage Heartbreak Anthem
UK R&B artist Edidion makes a confident statement with his new single, “GHOSTIN’ ME”. A standout
track from his critically acclaimed EP, “PHOENIX,” the song solidifies his place as a rising force,
delivering a powerful narrative about heartbreak and self-love, all while channeling the very origins of
UK Garage.
“GHOSTIN’ ME” carries a remarkable origin story, deeply intertwined with UK Garage royalty. After
publicly expressing his desire to collaborate with Mark Hill, of the legendary Artful Dodger, Edidion
was given the chance to record over one of his instrumentals. The early demo of “GHOSTIN’ ME”
received praise and support from Mark Hill, marking a profound full-circle moment for Edidion.
This was particularly significant as Mark’s work on Craig David’s “Born to Do It” was the first album
Edidion ever owned as a child. Edidion then reworked that demo into the final version.
Upon its initial release, “GHOSTIN’ ME” immediately drew comparisons to genre-defining classics
like Craig David’s “Fill Me In” and Daniel Bedingfield’s “Gotta Get Thru This.” The song masterfully
blends soulful vocals with infectious 2-step rhythms, channeling the iconic UKG/R&B fusion of that
era in a fresh, modern way. Lyrically, the song captures the all-too-relatable shock of being “ghosted”
in a relationship, moving from heartbreak to a powerful narrative of self-empowerment and moving
forward.
Edidion masterfully recaptures the golden era of UK Garage, infusing the nostalgic sound with a
fresh, modern energy for today’s audience. His new single, “GHOSTIN’ ME,” is a testament to this,
blending classic 2-step rhythms with a contemporary R&B feel that resonates deeply with listeners.
The track, with its undeniable groove and rich backstory, is poised to ignite dancefloors across the
UK and beyond.
“GHOSTIN’ ME” is available now on all music platforms.
