This track has soul and sustenance! Shébani’s newest single “Lean On You” featuring songwriter James Chatburn pumps out a perfect blend of retro 70’s funk and modern R&B sounds. A song that was written in 2020, Shébani talks about feeling isolated, tired and worn out within the confines of her bedroom and longing to find someone to lean on. The track was written by Shébani, produced by James Chatburn and the mastering was tasked to Zino Mikorey. We are exploding with love for all these UAE & Berlin based artists and cannot wait to hear Shebani’s full length debut album in 2023 to be produced by James Chatburn once again. Ultimately this song is genuine, authentic and makes us feel less alone about our feelings and anxieties.
Shébani is great for fans of: Alicia Keys, Dwight & Nicole, Lady Wray.

We’ve got plans for you to listen to Coldway’s new single titled “Plans”. This Electro-pop / R&B artist caught our attention because who doesn’t love a chill sexy track that reminds you of Anderson .Paak and The Weekend? This artist from Memphis can sing, rap and produce! And his new self-produced track is a phenomenal R&B rendition that reminds of all those factual capabilities. Not new to the scene and with much experience Coldway brings us a sonic piece of art where we can relax and chill under the night sky.

If you are seeking a song about “fucking up” then we highly recommend Arin, an electro-pop songwriter from London, UK. His new single titled “Own Worst Enemy” speaks to the hearts of the self-inflicted strugglers of the world. Arin’s take on hanging out with exes is brilliant, beautiful and messy. The emotions throughout the song really paint the picture of what loneliness can do to you if you give up on yourself and ignore your intuition. Compared to his past releases, we feel that it’s one of his best songs so far and we hope to see this artist get the attention he deserves.
