Fast rising R&B/Pop sensation Vincent Darby releases new EP, ‘For When It’s Over’

R&B/pop sensation VINCENT DARBY releases his new EP ‘For When it’s Over’ after recently gracing stages and creating considerable industry buzz at SXSW, NYC, and at School Night (LA). The six song EP follows the release of his uptempo single ‘Rogue’ where Vincent paints a picture of the irresistible allure of forbidden love.

While ‘Rogue’ embodies Vincent’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of R&B and Pop, it also serves as the lead track off his new EP.

“I started the process back in 2016 and I called the EP FOR WHEN IT’S OVER to document what love/lust feels like within this generation of quick attention spans and dating apps,” says the British crooner of Jamaican descent with strong Canadian ties. “In a world of instant gratification, genuine fulfillment in love doesn’t really exist.”

The EP encapsulates these sentiments in under 20 minutes, reflecting on intense yet short-lived relationships, now normalized in our society. Darby emerges as a beacon of musical innovation in the Pop and R&B genres, drawing from his soulful upbringing to craft unforgettable melodies that captivate audiences worldwide.

Inspired by his British upbringing and Jamaican heritage and introduced to music at a young age by his radio DJ grandfather, Vincent’s journey has taken him from karaoke bars showcasing his electrifying voice; to a sold-out headline performance at The Jazz Cafe in London and a coveted spot at BBC Radio 1’s big weekend festival. With hits like ‘We Could Be’ resonating globally and earning acclaim from MTV and BET, Darby is on a fast track to solidify his position as a trailblazer captivating audiences note-by-note.

‘For When It’s Over’ was released last Wednesday (3rd April) via 7 Long Lane Entertainment, an independent label that has contributed to the success of artists including Billie Eilish, Eminem, Mariah Carey, and many

OUT TODAY: Rlyblonde’s Debut Single Is The Ultimate ‘Fantasy’.

RLYBLONDE– the project of Brooklyn-based multidisciplinary artist Carina Allen – is making her musical debut with the release of her first single, ‘Fantasy,’ out on all streaming platforms today.

While this may be her debut as a singer-songwriter, rlyblonde is no stranger to the music industry. The New York-based twenty-something has long been the go-to photographer, videographer and creative director for numerous musicians. After years of supporting other artists and friends’ visions, she decided to put down the camera and pick up the guitar for a change.

rlyblonde’s well-established visual world is given new dimension with the launch of her music project. In addition to handling all of the songwriting and creative planning, she has also overseen the conception, production and direction of the music video (out February 17th), and collaborated with friends to plan out and shoot her own artwork and imagery.

Her introductory single, ‘Fantasy,’ flickers between gritty alt-rock and serene, melodic pop. Lyrically, the song echoes the familiar themes of heartbreak, identity and growth that can also be seen in her past self-portraiture and personal photography work.

“‘Fantasy’ is really about being frustrated with dating culture and the performances that women (especially women dating men) have to put on, almost out of necessity, until it hits a point where it all becomes too draining,” she explains. “At the same time, it’s also a song about the power of women, the power of illusion and seduction, the power of confidence, and the power of being anonymous.”

rlyblonde will be unveiling the ‘Fantasy’ music video at her debut performance at Heaven Can Wait in New York on 17th February…but for now, have a listen to the single below…

Song Of the Day: The In Between – Favourite Daughter

FAVOURITE DAUGHTER‘s latest single, ‘The In Between’, is far cry from her previous wonderfully chaotic offering, ‘Long Distance, which chronicles losing control of your feelings.

Positioned in a guitar-led intimate setting, ‘The In Between’ is about meeting someone you really like and the cocktail of feelings encountered when taking the dating phase to the next stage – the anticipation of happiness, the anxiety of having to stay in the moment, and the fear of being vulnerable with someone new and getting hurt.

Speaking of her single, the Montreal singer-songwriter says: I wrote The In Between a few weeks after meeting my partner. I was adamantly single and had every intention to remain that way, but of course love always finds you when you’re not looking, and I found myself terrified at how quickly I was falling for her. I wanted to strip this song back to its bare essentials and make it feel as intimate as possible, so the listener feels like they’re the only person in the room.“

Chynna Lewis Shares Her Brand New Single, ‘Mind And Soul’

CHYNNA LEWIS fell in love with a close friend and out of fear of rejection of wanting more than just a casual fling, she kept her cards close to her chest.

After harbouring those feelings, the Taiwanese Canadian singer-songwriter plucked up the courage to call him. Once the secret was out, the fear of rejection quickly turned to feeling empowered for taking action…and this inspired her to release the brand new single, ‘Mind and Soul’.

Sporting a rather salacious alt-afterhours R&B/soul vibe, ‘Mind and Soul’ explores the playfulness and excitement of a definite attraction between two people… but with the trials and tribulations of today’s dating world, which presents the illusion of choice that exists through apps and people playing games, It makes it near impossible to get the stage of expressing raw and honest feelings in a clear way.

This one’s a real gem…make sure you check out ‘Mind and Soul’ below, out now on all major download/streaming sites.
