— Hip-Hop artist Delaney A. Yancey (fka Troy Fayola) drops her first record of 2025 with her new single, “WINE.”
“WINE” is a serene and mellow track that provides an opportunity for Delaney to showcase her softer sensibilities. Known for her ferocious bars, sharp-witted lyrics, and fiery delivery, the multi-faceted wordsmith slows things down to cultivate a more intimate listening experience quite similar to that of her 2022 collab single, “LOCS.”
The new single serves as the perfect mood-setter for anyone looking to unwind, unravel, relax, and reflect. Whether you’re sipping fireside with a significant other or cozying up on your couch solo, “WINE” is a groove you can get behind in either setting. Still, Delaney A. Yancey isn’t one to deviate from meaningful lyrics and thoughtful subject matter and she doesn’t do that here.
Engaging in both deep introspection and daring social commentary, Delaney crafts a truly impressive and thought-provoking verse that will undoubtedly warrant multiple playbacks. From critiquing our history in this country and how we’re often driven toward our vices to likening the richness of our souls to that of a good glass of wine, Delaney put her immaculate pen on full display.
On the production side of things, “WINE” features a spine-tingling bass groove that carries so much gravity that you sink deeper and deeper into your seat with every stroke. Meanwhile, ultra-crispy snare claps coupled with whiny guitar riffs shock the system just enough to keep your senses sharp, making a perfect pairing. Courtesy of the song’s producer, Yondo, the tone was flawlessly set for Delaney’s melodious croons and velvety rhythmic flows.
