Matt B, Rocky Dawuni, Wouter Kellerman & Tony Succar – “They Know” [Song Review]

“They Know,” the new single/music video from four heavyweight artists – Ghanaian Afro-Roots artist Rocky Dawuni, South African GRAMMY®-winning flautist Wouter Kellerman, American GRAMMY®-winning World Music Artist Matt B, and Peruvian Latin star Tony Succar – merges elements of R&B, reggae, jazz, salsa, and afrobeats into a song celebrating dedication and success.

“They Know” rolls out on a slinky contrabass flute that segues into a bouncy, syncopated Latin rhythm topped by bright brass accents and deliciously warm vocals. The sway and swing of the beat highlight the song, making it oh-so contagious. Bright, piercing trumpets infuse the tune with big splashes of color, followed by a whistling, warbling, fluttering flute solo.

Lustrous backing harmonies give the chorus a luscious, mantra-like feel. The mood of the melody is lively, delivering a feel-good charm that’s irresistible.

With “They Know,” Matt B et al make unquestionably magnetic music distinguished by full-sized sensations and Latin influences.
