Lvna turns heads with second act

February 21, 2020

Lvna (pronounced Luna) cleared her throat in 2018 with ' No Quickie', an instant declaration about her methods to create a musical revolution.

" You remind me say me nuh waan no quickie," she sneered over a slow-mo dancehall-pop loop (rhythm with repeating segments) which she also teased with fun and seductive dance moves for the visuals shot in a bowling alley.

For her second act, Make Me Say featuring Konshens, Lvna takes sexy up a notch and digs deep with her low Toni Braxton-esque vocals and airy whispers.

"The feel of the track was a little bit of provocative but not too explicit; I don't know how exactly to categorise it, but it's definitely a fusion of R&B and dancehall," Lvna told THE WEEKEND STAR. "The collaboration was held on to for a little while, so that when we presented it, it would be close to perfection."

Lvna said that she is not worried about the naysayers, as no one will push her to be overtly sexy.

Aware of critics

"People will always criticise the girls that are considered too raunchy, but when they are not, the same people do not give you the time of day, forcing the hand of females in the music industry to take the course," she said.

Lvna uncovers her top-form body in the video, shot in Miami, appearing first in a vintage white dress, then lingerie, moving through the scenes effortlessly. But she admitted that there was a little fear in shooting the video.

"I believe I left enough to the imagination or added a little mystery," she said. Lvna says that she is taking it one step at a time to build her brand "as Lvna the artiste".

"When the time is right, then I'll go into other things, maybe even a lingerie line," she said.

Lvna said that she wanted to focus on creating music that is sexy and provocative, for the purpose of tapping into people's emotions and to play with different sounds for a wide range of fusion music.

"I welcome all feedback - positive and negative - all of it is to learn. Oftentimes I hear that sound won't work, it's too foreign. But I think the fusion will always be an element in my music because it allows me to show my roots and what I learn from other cultures," she said.
