ARDN - RUNNER UP
Weekly Music
ARDN, the talented artist, has once again dropped a new single titled "RUNNER UP," which is nothing short of a classic masterpiece. ARDN has a unique flair that exudes quality in every aspect of his music. His attention to detail is remarkable and is evident in his latest track. The cover art alone is enough to give listeners a glimpse into the vibe of the song even before hitting play. In today's world, having a strong social media presence is crucial for success, and ARDN has certainly capitalized on this. However, what sets him apart from the rest is that his social media clout is backed up by exceptional music, making his work stand out among the crowd. Last time I covered ARDN’s music we were talking about his single “Jupiter and Mars” which was one of my favorites at the time. I feel like he might have topped it with this one. His aesthetic on this track is apparent from the first second of the track. One of the most remarkable aspects of ARDN's music is his incredible cadence, which is undeniably memorable and catchy. He is not one to stick to a linear level, and his crazy flows add to the complexity of his already distinct vocal style. The hook of the song is particularly noteworthy, and it's clear that ARDN has put a lot of his effort into executing his hooks perfectly. I say this because he has not missed me on any one of his tracks. Each one has a very memorable and catchy hook to them. It takes a combination of good writing, melody, and production to create consistent pieces like "RUNNER UP," which is evident in ARDN's music. His vocal tonality is also something worth noting as he effortlessly switches across multiple ranges. There is a vibrancy to his delivery and beat selection that feels more natural than most other lyricists, making his work all the more enjoyable to me personally. The uplifting nature of the song, coupled with its punchy yet melodic vibe, makes it the perfect track for a workout or even just a casual drive. ARDN's music is multi-faceted, which is why his album has the potential to be one of the most well-rounded in the city. I could only imagine what he has in store for us next. I hope it’s some sort of a project and if not, I hope to see some interesting collaborations.
