Miu Haiti Unloads “Unphased”
Earlier this spring, multilingual rising star Miu Haiti released the sensational record, “Is This Love.” The song was accompanied by a lovely music video and was met with critical acclaim. The songstress returns to kick off the winter and close out the year with her sophomore album, “Unphased.” The eight-track album features the lead single, “Is This Love,” along with two other fan favorites: “In ‘Em Face” and “Real Ones.” The LP is chock full of sounds that borrows from Hip-Hop/Rap, Pop, R&B/Soul, and everything in-between.
“Unphased” is Miu Haiti’s first album since 2014, and she brought the heat. “Unphased” begins with “Chocolate Candy,” a seductive and moody song that is all about locking eyes with someone in a club. It’s about the feeling that gives you and the energy that can be felt in the room, whether it be good, bad, loving, or jealous. The second track is “Is This Love,” an electric song with a more up-tempo vibe. “Is This Love” is about the difficulties and obstacles that come with love. The beginning is always great, but the real tests start down the line, and it can be hard to navigate at times. Miu Haiti’s beautiful lyrics mixed with her angelic vocals really get you in your feels.
The third track is self-produced and called, “If I Call.” It starts out with peaceful guitar strumming followed by light vocalizations. This song is much slower than the others so far and also more stripped-down. There’s a sense of rawness and vulnerability laced in this song that is refreshing to the ears. “If I Call” is about the hard part of love, the breakups, and the damage it does to your heart. With all highs come lows, and this song really highlights that in a beautiful way. The fourth track titled, “Flip It,” is a completely different vibe, and features techno and futuristic musical elements. “Flip It” is a motivational anthem that is all about finding and owning your power. It’s about knowing what makes you, you and never being ashamed of that. The fifth track titled, “Real Ones,” is another upbeat song that is all about knowing who your true people are and only surrounding yourself with the best. Miu Haiti really goes off on this song specifically, and you can hear the power in her voice – she means what she says.
“In ‘Em Face” is the sixth song on “Unphased” and is full of sass. The attitude in Miu Haiti’s voice really makes this song stand apart from the others on the album. The seventh track, “Filon,” is performed in Miu Haiti’s native language, Creole. Miu Haiti’s ability to perform in a variety of different languages really helps set her apart from other artists. Finally, the eighth and final song on the album is “Tool Late.” This eclectic Pop song does a great job of pulling the entire album together. “Too Late” has a heavy beat to it and features Hip-Hop/Rap elements that we haven’t seen yet.
“Unphased” is set up in a way that tells the story of Miu Haiti’s personal experiences. The vulnerability shown by Miu Haiti in her music is what makes her great, and her unique sound is refreshing. Love is not easy, but whatever stage of a relationship you are in currently has a song to go with it thanks to Miu Haiti. Go on a journey of love and stream Miu Haiti’s new album “Unphased” today!

Buzzing Ghanaian artist AratheJay grips the spotlight again with the release of his latest single, “Fire”. The track features Nigerian singer Bella Shmurda, blending afrobeats rhythms with a well resonating.
AratheJay’s unmistakable faith and resilience echo in “Fire”, wrapped in celestial melodies that spark hope in listeners.
“Fire” paints the emotional picture of an individual walking through flames – symbolizing the harshness of life’s hardships, fears, and battles. However, rather than being consumed by the fire, the protagonist embraces it, finding strength and purpose in the heat of adversity. It’s a song about transformation, self-empowerment, and the indomitable human spirit.
In the song, AratheJay calls out for a lighter – not to destroy, but to ignite his inner courage, urging listeners to do the same in the face of their challenges. He sings for wings—not to escape, but to rise above their fears and conquer what once seemed impossible. His message is clear: you can rise stronger no matter how fierce the flames are.
With Bella Shmurda lending his distinctive voice, the track becomes even more potent. It blends both artists’ unique styles into a track that resonates deeply with anyone who has faced their own battles and found the strength to keep going.
“Fire” is solitude for anyone who has ever walked through flames. The track is available on all streaming platforms.
