about
'Carry Me' is a song about the negative effects that social media can have on mental health, and the importance of having good friends.
Featuring a duet between producer MDB and Eve Lesedi, 'Carry Me' explores how the weight of personal expectation, unrealistically comparing oneself to successful people, can lead to crushing outcomes. The importance of having a trusted friend to help keep you grounded becomes the uplifting conclusion to the song. As well as singing, Eve Lesedi also plays a thrilling tenor saxophone solo that elevates the song into the final chorus, a prominent part of the San Reetam sound.
Sonically the song pays loving homage to the production methods of Quincy Jones as well as modern approaches of artists like Pharrel Williams, incorporating vintage sounds with tight sampling. Listeners might hear influences from Stevie Wonder and Prince.
