Patra released a new reggae single titled Don’t Leave Me Lonely, for pre-order on iTunes at the end of August.
The new single – a cuddlesome after-hours romance fantasy – features Patra’s first collaboration with reggae producer Kemar ‘Flava’ McGregor.
‘The concept of this song is all about love and as a woman you have to demand what you need in the bedroom and anywhere else,” said Patra.
“This song is written to create tender vibes to lovemaking, so it’s an irie thing.”
For Patra, the recipe for sensual reggae is quite straightforward – a high-quality musical track with a deep, sexy bass groove, which inspires Patra to conjure her honest affinities for romance into lyrical and melodic offerings for loving couples.
“I want my fans to relax and enjoy what I have to offer, which is good music, and Don’t Leave Me Lonely puts them right in that mood,” said Patra.
“For me, sexiness is a habit! And how I feel inside – that’s how I express my love. Reggae music is the most powerful music in the world, so with the right bass line and the right flow, it’s bound to be a turn-on for anyone.”
