Ekelle is officially back with “Drift,” the latest thoughtful and uplifting 420-inspired single from the Toronto artist who has joined forces with Baksh. Together, they create a chill, low-key vibe that feels like more than just a nod to weed culture; it’s a celebration of stasis. This is tuning in, to find that sweet spot between hustle and healing.
Ekelle and Baksh revitalize that familiar theme of personality, providing us with verses that feel authentic, grounded, and culturally relevant. The production emphasizes chill grooves and bleary atmospheres, a sonic respite where attention meets relaxation.
Rather than glorifying escape, the song celebrates self-care, encouraging us to appreciate our journey while also knowing when to end it. The chemistry between Ekelle and Baksh is easy, both of them playing off the other to make the track simultaneously energetic and smooth.
Ekelle is on her way to becoming a strong voice on the Canadian independent music scene. This is the anthem for late-night sessions, for early-morning reflections, for anything in between. It’s evidence that slowing down is, sometimes, the ultimate power move.
