A Rii Set (Live) A solo focus on A Rii Set (Live) for Nigerian singer and producer Pheelz, who takes one of the most rhythmically identifiable tracks from the original project into a performance setting for “OBLEE (Live).
The lyrics are on the theme of letting go of your troubles and living for the now, there are references to nightlife, friends, parties and the recurrent phrase to be taken where the action is. That simple viewpoint keeps the record anchored in social activity, not an intricate story.
The original recording, created by Pheelz, has a 3-step-adjacent rhythm that provides a sturdy foundation to the looser performing frame of the live version. The chorus retains the major focus of the arrangement, giving the song an easy crowd-pleasing aspect.
Being the only song on the live EP without a vocalist, it affords Pheelz a greater opportunity to carry the musical identity and stage presence himself. That makes the tune a useful demonstration of the artist-producer balance that drives the greater Rii idea.
