Here’s what Edwin Dapaah had to say about the single:

How would you describe the music you typically create nowadays?

The music I create nowadays can be described as a mix of R&B and Rap. I have a deep connection with both genres and combining them in my music is something I've always wanted to do. I'm a pretty versatile artist and I've delved into various other genres as well. 

What is your creative process like, especially in your most recent projects? 

My creative process is usually the same for almost all of my songs. I'll play the beat over and freestyle to the beat. Usually I find parts that I like and then I begin to start writing. Sometimes I just use full freestyles to create a track as well. But that's mainly for my songs that lean more towards Rap. My R&B songs usually require more writing and construction before it's ready.

 What Is The Message You Wish Listeners To Take Away From The Track?

The message I want listeners to take from Poolside is that it's okay to have mixed feelings on a love interest. Poolside is a mellow ballad about the duality of wanting a certain love interest yet at the same time being conflicted about said person. Sometimes it can be annoying having these feelings, but it's all a part of life as a teenager.
