Setting the tone with glistening keys, rippling drums and a woodblock detailing, Shanay Morant and RussGreezy open their joint single, Gold, with vocal add libs and a luscious pop R&B vocal.
We are immediately drawn in by the evocative prose and the fusion of both Shanay Morant and RussGreezy‘s voices. Cohesively designed with an architectural synthscape, both singers have a unique timbre and a mesmerizing tone.
Speaking on the meaning of Gold, Shanay Morant confesses, “This song is all about feeling like your best self and having the night of your life. Unlocking all the things you never thought you could do and becoming the person you never imagined you could be.”
We love the empowering message that Shanay Morant and RussGreezy share, and the dynamic nature of the opus, which is laced with unforgettable and optimistic hooks.
Shanay Morant cites Janet Jackson, Michael Jackson, Anita Baker, and Pharrell Williams as some of her influences, although it is clear that the rising star is creating a universe of her own.
Having performed on both coasts, recently at the Viper Room in LA as well as the Federal Bar, and Sugar Bar in NYC, Shanay Morant shares some sage advice with us by saying, “Never give up. You will only fail if you stop trying.”
We love her message and collaboration with RussGreezy, and have added Gold to our New Music Spotlight playlist, whilst we continue to stream the star’s wider discography including GYNA and Something Could Be Going On.
