Ed Accura has shared the dynamic new track ‘1 LIFE’, a collaborative single blending hip-hop and R&B to deliver a social message he’s long campaigned for. The track is set to feature in Accura’s forthcoming documentary, No Lifeguard.
Melodic hooks change as we move from artist to artist, each showing their individual chops. It’s got an uplifting tone throughout as each brings confidence and inspiration to their lyricism, with personal responsibility and the value of life echoed throughout. The production is slick and modern. Packed with vibrant performances and a warming funk glow.
Ed explains, “‘1 LIFE’ featuring MAXOO, GOLDEY ONE4, SAMSON ALEXANDER, BOY SAYSO, & EMARVELLOUS, a hard-hitting release that centres on the reality that we only get one shot at this life. Built around urgency, accountability, and self-awareness, it reflects the mindset of taking control, making choices that matter, and understanding that no one else is responsible for your path but you.”
Born in London, raised between the UK and Chana, Ed has had a long career. In the 90s, he co-founded the UK hip-hop crew, 617, and launched Accura Records. By the 2010s, transitioning to align his art with social awareness and advocacy.
