AISHA BADRU is an up and coming, hotly-tipped Nigerian-American singer-songwriter. Her music’s enjoyed 135 million total music streams and 400k monthly listens. Those streamers/listeners will have enjoyed introspective lyrics and emotive performances on songs that meld neo-soul with a home spun, folksy quality.
Her growing number of fans will be delighted to learn that Ms Badru is preparing the release of her second album, ‘The Sun Still Rises’ (due November). In the meantime, they can enjoy the single – a gentle, insinuating ‘Boundaries’.
The song is delivered in Aisha’s trademark hushed vocal and , refreshingly, invites listeners to step back from the constant buzz of social media and frenetic news cycles that can sometimes overwhelm us all. Aisha: “’Boundaries’ is the alternative to the workaholic, always available, ultra-productive archetype/mindset that is so prevalent today, especially in the age of social media. Sometimes stillness and rest is the best course of action to move forward.”
Aisha Badru: Boundaries – out now!
