Feeling the 90’s nostalgia, Dru has your cure with “A Girl Like You” single

If you were born in the 80s, you probably were raised on the slick stylings of 90s R&B. Traditional R&B of the 1990s and the R&B of previous decade is still all around us. It’s not just in the form of nostalgia-tapping playlists but still in the music on the Billboard Hot 100. Dru’s newest single, “A GIRL LIKE YOU,” will bring you back those soulful memories.

“‘A GIRL LIKE YOU’ was inspired by R&B from the 90s what I call ‘the golden era of rhythm and blues.’ When artists wrote songs with emotion and real feelings.”

“This song talks about finally finding your soul mate the women of your dreams both emotionally and physically. I’m completely infatuated with her she is all i can see. The chorus is obviously taken from the R&B classic song ‘All My Life’ released in 1998 by R&B legends K-Ci & JoJo.”

About Dru

D.R.U Determined. Revolutionary. Unstoppable. These are fitting words to describe Dru, the R&B/Soul/Pop singer & songwriter.

“A soulful vibe comes through in everything I do,” says Dru, whose musical influences include Usher, Marvin Gaye, D’Angelo, Jodeci, and Stevie Wonder.

In 2014, Dru took some time to reinvent himself yet again and wrote his soulful smash hit single “Déjà Vu,” produced by heavy hitters Baseline and Kuya productions. “Déjà Vu” also earned Dru another JUNO nomination for R&B Soul Recording of the Year this past April 2016 at the JUNO Awards in Calgary.

Over the past five months, Dru has released two new singles, “Caroline” and “Like I Do” which both cleared over 125k each in streams on Spotify. Dru recorded about 30 new songs for his new album set to be to released in 2018.

“I’m so excited for this new project, I have definitely taken it back to where I started, soulful emotional music inspired by 90’s R&B.”
