California Collective Tha Building Share Funky New Single “Love Remains” Featuring Lyrics Born
Los Angeles collective Tha Building came to be during the pandemic as band leader J Brewster and 25 musicians from the Bay Area recorded ’70s-funk inspired tunes. The ensuing collection of music, Outside Ourselves, is set to be released later this year and will include their new single “Love Remains”, featuring rapper Lyrics Born.
The tight-knit crew of virtuosic musicians bring together the powerhouse influences of their predecessors, laying down thick bass lines and melodic horn and guitar riffs, topped off by a soulful hip-hop performance from Lyrics Born.
Written about feelings of lost love and the grieving process of letting go of exes, “Love Remains” tries to find a balance after reaching love reaches its end. “It’s about how just because two people can’t be together, it doesn’t mean they have to be enemies,” Brewster says.
