Following the success of her self-produced debut EP Be Myself, which gained over 2M streams, the talented R&B songstress returns with the dynamic single “One Way”. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Erykah Badu, Aaliyah and Stevie Wonder to bring the hazy, laid-back vibes of Shamiyah’s sultry track to life – while keeping understated, honest songwriting at its core. Reflecting on her own romantic life, the single captures the complex feelings around intimacy and insecurity that many will relate to. Released alongside an intimate visualiser, in which we are invited into the space where Shamiya creates all her music – her bedroom.
With critical attention from key tastemakers such as GUAP, BBC 1XTRA’s Jamz Supernova EP of the week, BBC R1, Apple Unsigned and Foundation FM, there’s no question that Shamiya’s soulful music and lyricism marks her as a captivating artist on the rise.
