HONOURING LOVE IN REAL TIME: OLAIDE BANKS BRINGS ‘FLOWERS’

There is a moment in Flowers when Olaide Banks pauses, his voice carrying both gratitude and reflection. The rhythm slows, the harmonies bloom, and what unfolds feels like a quiet conversation with the women who shaped his life. From that space of tenderness, the reggae artist builds a song that celebrates love, effort and presence.

Flowers is a soulful reggae anthem honouring mothers and women everywhere. It radiates warmth and thankfulness, urging listeners to cherish those who nurture them while they are still here to see it.

Built on steady roots reggae rhythms and smooth harmonies, the track moves with calm assurance. Banks’ rich vocal delivery meets Nikki Burt Bolt’s gentle backing, weaving emotion through every verse. Together, they capture a sound both grounded and elevating.

FLOWERS IS A GENTLE CALL TO GIVE LOVE WHILE IT MATTERS

Produced by Dominik Gall and Olaide Banks, and mixed by reggae veteran Steven Stanley in Kingston, Flowers bridges Houston and Jamaica. Its sound remains uncluttered, letting the sincerity of Banks’ message take centre stage.

Following Ancient Wisdom and My Home, this release deepens Banks’ mission to spread conscious reggae that uplifts and connects. With Flowers, he offers a reminder to give appreciation freely while we can, to honour the strength of those who help us grow.
