Proving wrong the notion that judges of syndicated singing programs are professionals at spotting talent, David Lyve brings his second full length album, ‘Love 4 Real.’ Take 4 years of emotion, 3 years of touring, 2 years of intense writing, singing, arranging, and producing, mix in a year and a half of intimate studio recording, that’s Love 4 Real. “He’s the voice that never made The Voice!” Wayne B {major artist developer; Archangel Ent.} The sounds of this album will only fit in coliseums. The words written by David are confident yet honest. The drums are bold and monstrous. The keys, the strings, the bass, scream tears, and joy, and wonder. The arrangements sound as if they have taken years to perfect, because they have. And David’s guitar? Beautiful! This album is in a whole other class than David’s first, ‘Finding Love.’ Upon moving to southwest Philadelphia, David began crafting, ‘Love 4 Real.’ He secretly hid away for the first 6 months to saturate himself with what he called, ‘a Stevie Wonder lyrical study.’ And once out of hibernation, the songs, the words, began flowing. But the studying did not stop there, David then embarked on a 6 month journey of chord and melody structuring to turn his raw emotion into an amazing listening experience. Then, fully exhausted, he traveled to New Jersey to begin studio work. In a word, this album is gorgeous! By the end of ‘Love 4 Real’ you will be faced with a question concerning you, your emotions, and God. You will also have a question burning through your lips, ‘why in the world would any music program tell him no!?’
