Song of the Day: On Me – Brandz (ft. Ziezie)

Lifted from his second solo EP in two years, Street & Soul (SNS), UK rap and R&B rising star BRANDZ has linked up with eclectic UK rapper and singer ZIEZIE for his single and EP focus track titled ‘On Me’. Produced by Vitals, who has also worked with the likes of B Young, Ty Dolla $ign and Lil Tjay, the infectious UK R&B-rap fusion offering also comes with a lush perfect-for-summer music video filmed in London and shot by seasoned video director Sesan, whose directorial credits include working with Kanye West, Cardi B and Migos, among others.

‘On Me’ comes on the back of Brandz recently receiving the BRIT Certified Silver award for his viral hit track ‘Intro (Real Love)’ with Zion Foster, from their breakthrough 25/8 collaborative project that has amassed over 250 million streams and sold over half a million units worldwide.

Emerging onto the UK music scene as part of the award-winning British duo Tizzy x Brandz that gave us cult classics such as ‘All Ways’ and ‘Escobar’, Brandz has gone on to become a force to be reckoned with as a solo rising star, with over two million monthly listeners on Spotify, and support from the likes of BBC 1Xtra, GRM Daily, TRENCH, Earmilk, Spotify, MTV UK and Notion, among others. Over the past 12 months, the North London native has been working on his highly anticipated Street & Soul EP and his debut album with the likes of 4-time Grammy Award winner Larrance Dopson (1500 Or Nothin) and DJ Khalil (Nipsey Hussle, A$AP Ferg), among others.

Mychelle Join Forces With Enny For New Single, ‘Forbidden Fruit’

Hackney-born singer, songwriter and guitarist MYCHELLE has unveiled her new track ‘Forbidden Fruit’ featuring ENNY. The latest single from her upcoming EP ‘Someone Who Knows’ which is set for release on 20th May.

Markedly more buoyant and rhythmic than Mychelle’s previous releases, ‘Forbidden Fruit’ is a rootsy yet bass-driven track. Sonically recalling the work of neo-soul songstresses India Arie, Tweet and Vivian Green, the track emits the ambience and mood of a peaceful summer afternoon.

Lyrically, the song details the moral dilemmas that arise when one falls for someone they know isn’t good for them and the complicated feelings that consequently rise to the surface.

Lending guest vocals to the track is fellow FAMM label-mate ENNY who adorns the song with a majestic rap verse. The newest addition in ENNY’s recent string of features, following her freshly-released collaborations with Shae Universe, Odeal and Boj. The resulting collaboration is a perfect marriage of Mychelle’s acoustic soul sensibilities and ENNY’s supreme rap stylings.

Directed by Portia Barnett-Herrin, the video follows Mychelle as she’s strolling through a park late at night where she is curiously enticed by a strange light that leads her to an alternative universe.

Soon she’s face to face with a version of herself she doesn’t recognise, engaging in a high-stake game of chess before completely disappearing. The video’s narrative is further complemented by visually rich collage sequences placing an emphasis on the sensory draw of fruits and flowers.

The new single comes after the release of her previous single, ‘Younger Self’ – the lead single of her forthcoming sophomore EP ‘Someone Who Knows’, which will coincide with her first ever headline show at The Lexington on 31st May.
