EDEN HILL - "AFRAID"
Manage episode 441754319 series 2286342
Emerging Christian rap artist Eden Hill intentionally chose Friday, the 13th to debut his new single “Afraid,” a powerful track featuring orchestral elements, gritty trap beats, and a deep spiritual message. “It felt right to drop a song about letting go of fear and overcoming darkness in this season,” he shares on the decision on the release date. “I’m a big fan of irony. I thought it would be really ironic to drop a Christian rap song that’s about letting go of fear on a day that represents evil. I thought it would contrast what that day represents—and, therefore, bring light into a dark space.”
“Afraid” came together quickly—with Eden Hill finishing the beat a few days before recording the lyrics and completing the whole track within days. Lyrically, “Afraid” follows a journey from fear to faith with Eden Hill, whose name offers a reminder that “Paradise is on the horizon,” touching on personal struggles and transformation. “It’s about where I was before God met me and pulled me out of the darkness,” he explains.
