Discover Camila Cabello’s Latest Pop Banger, “I LUV IT,” Featuring Playboi Carti
|
|
Camila Cabello (@camila_cabello) is a four-time GRAMMY® Award-nominated, multi-platinum, and chart-topping singer-songwriter from Cojimar, Cuba. Not too long ago, she released a brand-new pop banger, “I LUV IT,” featuring rapper Playboi Carti. The release is accompanied by its daring official music video, directed by Nicolás Méndez at CANADA (Dua Lipa, Tame Impala, Travis Scott). The video was shot in Miami earlier this year.
“Certain things in our human realm do make me feel like I’m in outer space, and the very rare few times where I’ve had incredible chemistry with someone is one of them. Part of that cocktail is also the emotional drama between you and that person, and the chaos and butterflies and nerves and passion. It’s unsustainable and not peaceful and exhausting, but also, I LUV IT.” – Camila Cabello explained
As anticipation for new music from Camila has grown, the global pop star has kept fans on their toes teasing the arrival of “I LUV IT” over the past few weeks. Earlier this month, Camila was seen at the Miami Heat basketball game wearing a custom jersey with “I LUV IT” emblazoned on the back, also worn by Miami Heat player Jimmy Butler. “I LUV IT” was written by Camila and created alongside executive producer El Guincho (Rosalia, J Balvin, Billie Eilish) and co-producer Jasper Harris (Baby Keem, Jack Harlow, Roddy Rich).

|
|
Fresh off being honored at the Essence Black Women in Hollywood Luncheon, the six-time Grammy-nominee, leading actress, and global superstar, Halle Bailey, ignited fans into a frenzy with the release of a stunning, Anastasia Delmark-directed music video for her unforgettable love song, “In Your Hands,” produced by Grammy-nominated producer, DemJointz.
“‘In Your Hands’ is an incredibly special song to me. It’s basically a message about fighting for a love that you know is an incredibly beautiful one-of-a-kind love, but also a reminder to that special someone that your love has changed their life and is something they won’t experience in this lifetime again. It’s a love song but also an empowerment song to ourselves, and a reminder that we are a one-of-a-kind special being and that we’re worth more than all the diamonds and gold in the world.” – Halle explained
“In Your Hands” focuses on Halle’s expansive power and invokes what fans have come to expect from one of the greatest vocalists of our generation. The song follows an already viral week for Halle as USA Today and countless other media outlets reported on her acceptance speech at the Essence Black Women in Hollywood Luncheon where she addressed the invasive baby rumors over the last several months. “There was no way in hell I was going to share the biggest joy of my world with anyone,” said Bailey, wiping away tears. “Halo was my gift. I had no obligation to expose him, me, or my family to that unyielding spotlight.”

|
|
Marieme (@mariememusic) is a talented singer-songwriter from Mauritania, Africa. Not too long ago, she released a lovely lyric video for her captivating new single, “Changin,” via Galsene Productions Ltd.
Featured on ABC’s Grey’s Anatomy and HULU’s Good Trouble, “Changin” is about embracing a new you who has faced grief. Sometimes what hurts the most is that we’ll never be the unbroken people we were before grief, but embracing it, learning from it, and processing it correctly is what will bring closure.
“Changin” contains a stimulating narrative, ear-pleasing soul vocals, and an evergreen vibe that will resonate well with Adele, Alicia Keys, and Jennifer Hudson supporters. With a heavy heart, Marieme sings passionately, “Movin’ on, it feels like hell, but I’m learning how to not get burned by the embers of my own flame.”

AJA’s “Find Better” Is An Emotive Pop Single You Need to Hear
|
|
AJA (Aja Neinstein @ itsaja) is a rising singer-songwriter from Toronto, Canada. Not too long ago, she released an emotive pop single, “Find Better,” a reminder to trust your gut. Navigating a long-distance relationship is never easy, let alone when you’re 19, but AJA lives and learns.
“I wrote ‘Find Better’ about a year and a half ago when I was living in L.A. I was in the early stages of a toxic relationship that I think I knew deep down it was going nowhere good. It was a long-distance relationship. He was supposed to move to L.A., but that never happened. Had I known that I would have never gotten involved. Mostly, the song is about staying with someone who you know isn’t right for you.” – AJA explained
“Find Better” is a flawless next move from the Canadian artist on the rise. AJA is quickly making her mark as an empowered songwriter and impressive role model, reflected in her multiplying fanbase. “Find Better” is also the follow-up to AJA’s first release of the year “If I’m Honest.” Never one to take things lying down, AJA’s razor-sharp songwriting never misses.

|

GILSKA (@gilskamusic) is a rising London-based singer-songwriter from Sri Lanka. Not too long ago, she released a blissful EDM/dance single, “Overthinking.”
“‘Overthinking’ brings you into the mind of an overthinker entering a new relationship. Filled with anxiety and a million thoughts it can be super difficult to trust, especially after being burnt in previous relationships. It’s a dark dance track that you can dance away your sorrows to.” – GILSKA explained
“Overthinking” showcases the danceable electronic soundscapes topped with vibrant pop melodies. GILSKA sings passionately, “One little doubt and my whole world starts to end. Two-hour calls just to bring me back again.”
Built around swelling synths and deep sub-bass, the track opens with an atmospheric electronic backdrop under GILSKA’s silky smooth vocal tone and relatable, heartfelt lyricism. As the track gradually grows, the vocals soar into the chorus before introducing a tight four to the floor and pulsing synth bass into the second verse. Continuing its build, the beats gradually add elements growing into an infectiously danceable final chorus.
