The Wake Up And Get It EP from friend to GFM Sydney Raneé is what I would refer to as a “Summertime Situation Soundtrack”. You know about those? The summertime situation? Something might start brewing around Memorial Day and by the middle of June… you get what I’m saying.
These “situations” can go either way as in really, really wonderful or perhaps not. Zero middle ground. Now imagine having some music to speak to such times. These are the vibes I get from Sydney: guarded but free, regret but YOLO, the heat of July and the chill of January.
Music that speaks to a situation that many of have been in is relatable and it is my hope that you all relate to Wake Up And Get It the EP from Sydney Raneé out now!
