IAMJALEO Unleashes New Single ‘Call Out’

With “Call Out,” DMV artist IAMJALEO delivers a meditative, slow-burning statement — not just musically, but emotionally. Written during a quiet moment of escape, the track simmers with the tension of someone stuck between obligation and longing. IAMJALEO has always walked the line between the personal and the universal, but here, he treads deeper into vulnerability, letting discomfort become his muse.

Sonically, “Call Out” balances restraint with intensity. A minimalist beat echoes beneath lush, soulful textures, creating a moody backdrop that leaves room for his words to breathe. IAMJALEO’s delivery is deliberate and emotionally raw — less about technical prowess, more about clarity and conviction. Each verse unfolds like a journal entry, intimate yet somehow collective.

There’s an undeniable influence of hip-hop heavyweights — think the storytelling finesse of J. Cole mixed with the avant-soul leanings of Tyler, The Creator. Yet IAMJALEO is never imitative. He moves fluidly through moods, rejecting easy genre tags in favor of something more elemental and rooted in personal experience.

“Call Out” captures a specific ache: that quiet, choking realization that the life you’ve built no longer reflects who you are. It’s a song not about quitting, but about awakening. In that sense, it’s quietly radical — a protest without shouting, a resignation letter written in melody.

IAMJALEO continues to carve out a unique sonic space. With “Call Out,” he refines his voice — not louder, but clearer — showing that rebellion can be soft, and that courage sometimes sounds like stepping back to breathe.

Five-time GRAMMY Award-winning global icon Shania Twain has announced a major run of outdoor shows across the UK and Ireland for June 2027, including headlining State Fayre, the UK’s largest music and BBQ festival, on Saturday 19 June.

The eight-date run begins at Scarborough’s Open Air Theatre on 16 June, before Shania heads to Glasgow Summer Sessions at Bellahouston Park, State Fayre Festival in Chelmsford, Cardiff’s Blackweir Fields, Live at Powderham in Exeter, Dublin’s Marlay Park, Belsonic in Belfast and finally culminating at Oxfordshire’s Blenheim Palace Festival on 29 June.

Tickets go on general sale on Friday 6 November at 9am.

The announcement follows the release of Little Miss Twain – The Places I’ll Go, the deluxe edition of Shania’s acclaimed seventh studio album, Little Miss Twain. Released this July, Little Miss Twain marked a significant and deeply personal chapter for Shania. After more than three decades as one of the most successful and influential artists in music, the global superstar turned back to the beginning, revisiting the experiences, sounds and memories that shaped her before the world knew her name.

Drawing from her childhood and teenage years growing up in Canada, the acclaimed album traces the roots of her singular sound across country, pop, rock, soul and bluegrass, offering a revealing portrait of the influences behind an artist who would go on to reshape the boundaries of country and pop music. The album also features an exceptional lineup of collaborators, including Tanya Tucker, T Bone Burnett, Ronnie Wood, Josh Homme, Ray Parker Jr., and Toto’s David Paich. With Little Miss Twain – The Places I’ll Go, Shania expands that story, offering an even deeper look at the formative experiences and musical influences behind both the artist and icon she would become.

Also recently released was the audiobook of Shania’s 2011 memoir, From This Moment On, now available with narration from Shania herself. The bestselling book traces her tumultuous rise to stardom and features a new foreword with personal reflections on her journey.

Shania’s influence remains as far-reaching as ever. In 2027, she will celebrate the 30th anniversary of Come On Over and the 25th anniversary of Up!, two era-defining albums that transformed country and pop music, broke barriers around the world and cemented her status as a global icon. With a huge run of live dates in 2027, and a biopic chronicling her life and career also in development, Shania continues to look ahead while celebrating the music and milestones that have defined her extraordinary career.
