In the course of his music career which has been for only a few years, he has been quite successful. Churning out good music has never been a problem for the singer and songwriter who used to go by the name Squeeze Tarela. He has built an amazing catalog of celebrated music that includes joints such as ‘Hottest Thing’, ‘Better’, ‘Cocoa Butter’, ‘Bend’ and ‘Showers of Blessings’.
“’Hold Me Down’ is the first single off my 5-track EP titled ‘ELECTRIC’ set to drop this summer. The song was produced by Giggz and the strings by Sam Ofori added more life to the song. I simply wanted to portray the importance of the strength of a woman when she is loved and appreciated by her man. “Hold Me Down” is created for everyone who sees the importance of a loyal woman.”
