Ruth B. - Dirty Nikes [Video]

Canadian singer-songwriter Ruth B. shows off her delicate, soul-infused vocals on her mesmerising break-up ballad, ‘Dirty Nikes’.

In ‘Dirty Nikes’, the Canadian-Ethiopian artist laments her lingering love for her long-gone skater-boy, who's beaten up trainers end up in the bin, but not before they send her on a trip down memory lane. It’s a deeply calming tune, laced with chilled out beats wrapped in soft instrumentals. Ruth B.’s sweetly melancholic vocals effortlessly express the dull pain of rediscovering a memento from a past relationship, even when it’s a battered old pair of trainers caked in mud. Love’s weird like that.
