All you 6lack and Frank Ocean fans (and I know you are legions) gather round. The Bay Area R&B recording artist Donovan Lowe has a juicy suggestion for your “Sadboi” playlist.
“Feel The Same” (featuring Young Al) has such a bizarre production, this a leftfield take on today’s R&B, presenting a more dangerous, wilder side of contemporary urban music, just like The Weeknd did in his first trilogy. The production of this thing is a gun; when listening on headphones you are being bombarded by this sarcastic beat from left and right.
This artist has all the potential to blow up any time. This is cutting-edge music, without any unnecessary technical blah-blahs, it is short and to the point. And there’s a wide market to feast upon it. Even though the impression one might get from Donovan’s appearance could be he is leaning towards a more old-school R&B thing, like Anthony Hamilton. However, this is so 2019-2020 music.
“Feel the Same” (featuring Young Al) is included in Donovan Lowe debut EP called “Loving U In Secret”. Stream it the song

Bio
One element which makes music so powerful is its capacity to take us somewhere magical. Through his own compositions, RnB artist Donovan Lowe expresses his experiences of finding love, loneliness, and heartbreak, with the goal to become an icon for the people that feel unheard and unseen in life.
His musical background goes back to the earliest years of his life. Being a member of choirs and ensembles paved the way to him writing music in his teenage years. The struggles he went through at this time became the driving force for his lyrics, and arguably the catalyst for his success so far. He was an attendee of Musicians Institute, where he initially picked up his performance and production techniques. He later graduated from Los Medanos College with a degree in Music.
Donovan's music captures that unique 'sadboi' vibe and echoes similarities to 6lack, Frank Ocean and The Weeknd. His debut EP, 'Loving U in Secret', is available to stream now and features the fan favorites, "Colors", "Feel the Same" and "Passion".
