Rising Caribbean-American artist DiDi Musiqq unveils her latest single, Survivor, a deeply personal and powerful anthem of resilience, self-love, and perseverance. The song reflects the hardships, heartbreaks, and obstacles she has faced and continues to overcome.

I eat, sleep, breathe, walk, and live music,” says DiDi, an experienced and driven songwriter, vocalist, and recording artist with Nigerian roots, based in New York City.

From a young age, DiDi knew that music was her destiny. Growing up in Brooklyn, NY, in a family of eight, she was immersed in a household filled with music.

As an alto-soprano with a broad range, she writes deeply personal songs infused with emotion, blending modern sounds with danceable rhythms. Her music transcends genres, drawing inspiration from soul, pop, reggae, R&B, house, EDM, and Afrobeats.

“When I first heard Afrobeats, I got truly excited and felt this was my calling,” DiDi shares. Now, she is creating a buzz with her infectious Afrobeat singles and working on a full-length album.

Didi has an impressive catalog of over 400 songs which she recorded to chose from to release—DiDi Musiqq continues to push boundaries and break barriers in the industry. Regardless of the genre she explores, her common thread remains passion and dedication. Her world-class productions and meticulous attention to detail ensure that every song resonates deeply with her audience.

Survivor is not just a song; it is a declaration of strength, an anthem for anyone who has faced struggles but refuses to give up. With her unwavering commitment to excellence and authenticity, DiDi Musiqq proves that she is here to stay.

Former ‘The Voice’ finalist and renowned TV sync music writer LLOREN releases her next single ‘Like I Need’.

On the track, LLOREN explains, “After coming out of a 12-year relationship, I realised that any love I accepted next would have to be something spectacular, the kind of romance you see on movie screens. It wasn’t that I wasn’t loved before, just not in the way I needed. When I started developing a new crush, as exciting as it was, I knew I couldn’t settle. I wanted and deserved the kind of love that sweeps you off your feet, full of passion, magic, and possibility. Nothing less. The chorus is a pretty much a road map to my heart!”.

Produced by Daniel Pashman, ‘Like I Need’ captures feelings of hope and anticipation, while keeping the retro, anthemic vibe that’s quickly becoming LLOREN’s signature. The track’s melancholic under-tones are swept away in a thick 80s production, as the chorus hits hard with its instantly engaging and relatable themes, bringing all of the feels of searching for new love.

Hit TV show The Traitors, Grey’s Anatomy, The L Word, 1923, Wish, The Company You Keep, Made In Chelsea, Love Island UK and Love Island USA are just some of the many sync credits LLOREN has amassed to date, which have steadily proved her rich, multi-faceted vocal and powerful contemporary inspired compositions to be a cut above the rest.

Tracks from LLOREN’s hugely anticipated forthcoming debut album ‘It’s Always Sunny in LA’ have already picked up airplay from BBC Radio 2’s Angela Griffin and Radio X’s John Kennedy and press acclaim from prestigious music tastemakers Louder Than War and The Line Of Best Fit, as momentum continues to build. LLOREN’s video for her track ‘Like This’ also won a Telly Award in the US, as well as also being nominated for a prestigious Leo Award in Canada.

LLOREN appeared at The Gibson Garage All Day Festival in London earlier this year and in her career to date has opened European tours for Fleurie, Johannes Oerding and Michael Patrick Kelly respectively, played the UK’s annual PRIDE celebrations in Manchester and London and toured with Mauvey, with whom she collaborated with on the track ‘Pillow’, performing it at BBC Radio 1’s Big Weekend as well as the Isle Of Wight Festival 2023.
