Introducing a fresh voice with deep roots in R&B craftsmanship, OLAAF makes a striking entrance with the release of “The G.O.A.L.,” featuring veteran artist Sean-Tezz. The debut single reflects a strong commitment to tradition, artistic integrity, and soulful celebration, delivered through a modern, polished sound.
OLAAF is the musical partnership of brothers Darrell and Rodney Oliver. Together, they form a sophisticated production and composing duo that brings a clear purpose to their creative process: honoring the “legacy of ancestors” through intricate harmonies, rhythmic depth, and intentional songwriting. Their work isn’t built on imitation but the continuation of the sounds that shaped generations before them, brought into today’s landscape with care and vision.
“The G.O.A.L.” captures this approach fully. Set to a smooth, mid-tempo groove, the track is a summertime anthem rooted in joy and affirmation. At the heart of the song is a celebration of a woman’s worth, expressed through thoughtful composition and emotionally rich performance. The production is layered, allowing the vocals to take the lead.
Key to the song’s resonance is the involvement of Sean-Tezz, whose R&B credentials date back to his time with the group 7-Mile. That group, once signed and executive produced by Mariah Carey under her Crave Records label, made waves with their Billboard-charting single “Do Your Thing.” Now stepping into a new chapter with OLAAF, Sean-Tezz brings his seasoned voice to both lead and background harmonies, elevating the track with his authenticity and presence.
Sean-Tezz’s contribution doesn’t feel like a feature for name recognition as he naturally fits within the sonic structure OLAAF has crafted. The chemistry is evident, and the result is a track that carries the weight of experience while sounding fresh and relevant.
What stands out most about OLAAF is their intentionality. “The G.O.A.L.” is designed to last, reflect pride in history, and the joy in the present. By tapping into foundational elements of R&B, while collaborating with an artist like Sean-Tezz, they’ve delivered something that speaks to a wide audience while remaining true to their creative roots.
