Emerging R&B Star AMIRAH Debuts Powerful New Single “Silently”
AMIRAH is an independent artist with a talent for writing infectious tunes and relatable narratives. Inspired by internationally acclaimed artists such as Rihanna, Alicia Keys and Halsey, AMIRAH’s musical journey began at a very tender age. Being the avid storyteller that she is, the LA-based singer, who is originally from Malaysia, is greatly influenced by real-life experiences and hardships, where the majority of her inspiration derives from, allowing her to evoke strong emotions within her listeners, as can be heard on her brand-new single “Silently”.
“Silently” immediately commands attention from the first listen with its dark and gritty R&B production, which provides the perfect backdrop for AMIRAH’s versatile vocals – at times sugary sweet and at other times delivered with rap-like bravado, which makes for a fascinating listen. The rising artist also flexes her impressive penmanship, with the track jam-packed with engaging lyrics, catchy melodies and a memorable hook that will have everyone singing along. Only her fourth official single, it’s clear AMIRAH is one to watch.
Speaking further on the new release, AMIRAH says, “This track is about the comeback after making it through the storm (failed relationships, personal issues, traumas, emotional battles etc.). It is the anthem that represents the girl/woman who is so powerful and confident in herself that she doesn’t care what the world thinks of her. She is living life drama free and is doing whatever makes her happy, which is her main priority in life. She’s putting herself first and no one else above her but God.”
“Silently” is available to buy/stream now on all platforms: https://ffm.to/presave-silently.

Feelgood Frequencies: Why CR Srikanth’s “Dancing in the Dark – VS Pop™” Is The Sonic Hug You Didn’t Know You Needed
If you’ve been looking for a track that feels like a warm, nostalgic hug wrapped in shimmering synths, CR Srikanth’s new single “Dancing in the Dark – VS Pop™” might be exactly what you need. It offers a beautiful balance of emotional depth and danceable energy, pulling you out of your head and into a place where you can just breathe, feel, and move. In a world that often feels overwhelming, this track delivers a sense of calm and release.
Srikanth, a US-based Indian composer and sonic storyteller, has carved out a unique musical space with his self-created genre, VS Pop™ (Very Smooth Pop). Drawing from vintage 1980s synthpop, ambient soundscapes, and cinematic orchestral touches, he’s crafted a style that feels both familiar and forward-thinking. “Dancing in the Dark” continues that evolution. It is at once intimate and expansive, polished yet deeply human.
The track features vocals from Junior Paez, whose delivery adds emotional texture to the lyrics. There’s a quiet honesty in lines like “Don’t you think you’re losing your mind again?” and “Hold on, I’ll take you a little higher tonight.” These words speak to the chaos we often feel inside, but instead of staying stuck there, the song encourages movement, connection, and hope. It is music that acknowledges the darkness but chooses to dance through it anyway.
The production is rich with shimmering arpeggiators, retro synth bass, and crisp electronic drums. It brings together nostalgia and futurism in a way that feels effortless. Imagine flickering neon lights, soft motion blur, and the kind of energy that makes you want to close your eyes and sway. It is cinematic but never overwhelming. Every layer serves the emotion at the heart of the track.
What makes “Dancing in the Dark” so appealing is how well it adapts to your mood. Whether you’re heading out for a solo night drive, setting the vibe for a weekend gathering, or simply lying on your bed in need of a reset, this song fits the moment. It never pushes too hard, but it always lands exactly where it needs to. There is something comforting about how sure of itself it feels.
CR Srikanth is not just making music for the sake of it. He is building emotional landscapes for listeners to get lost in and to find themselves again. With “Dancing in the Dark – VS Pop™,” he offers more than just a catchy tune. He gives us space to reflect, to feel seen, and to find joy in the act of simply moving forward. So press play, turn it up, and let yourself be lifted. This one’s for the heart, the soul, and the feet.
