DaniLeigh Claims Her Spotlight Moment In Her Playful ‘Monique’ Video
The singer shares the video on the heels of her sophomore album ‘Movie.’ …
Miami-born Dominican-American singer DaniLeigh started out as Prince’s protege, even earning the chance to direct his video for “Breakfast Can Wait” at just 18 years old. But she’s now making moves of her own. On the heels of her sophomore album, Movie, which boasted appearances from big names like DaBaby, PartyNextDoor, Gunna, and Fivio Foreign, DaniLeigh shares a video alongside her track “Monique.”
Things kick off with DaniLeigh riding around in a powder blue Jeep, delivering her verses while taking laps and climbing on top of the vehicle. The video then cuts to a scene of the musician in a contract negotiation meeting, complete with a table scattered with cash and jewelry. Knowing her worth, the singer refuses to sign and kicks the businessman to the curb. “Ice out the Rollie, roll down the streets / Flooded ’cause life is a beach / You cannot hear me ’cause I’m out of reach / All type of designer is packed in my brief,” she raps.
Before the release of her latest video, the singer also stopped by Uproxx Studios to perform a rendition of the track. You can check that out here. And you can watch DaniLeigh’s “Monique” video above.
Movie is out now via Def Jam. Get it here.

Leyla Romanova finds strength in silence on new release “Self-Control”
Leyla Romanova‘s new single, “Self-Control,” is a powerful emotional release that feels more like a manifesto for surviving modern chaos than a song. In a world of opinions, urgency, and emotional exhaustion, Romanova offers a track based on one radical idea: not reacting.
“Self-Control” immediately creates tension and clarity. The drums keep everything together with discipline and purpose. As the textured instrumentals expand like waves of thought through a crowded mind, the bass anchors the listener emotionally.
The contrast between outside noise and inside stillness makes the song compelling. Romanova’s work captures the feeling of being overwhelmed by pressure, opinions, and distractions while silently retaining personal peace. There are no major uprisings. But restraint is power. The song knows energy conservation is a survival strategy.

J’mall expresses the pain of chasing someone else’s success over your own on “Unattainable”
J’mall’s latest single, “Unattainable,” expresses the pain of chasing someone else’s success over your own. The song explores the emotional void caused by constant comparison rather than motivation.
“Unattainable” is about realizing that no matter how hard one works to meet others’ expectations, the reward will never be satisfying. J’mall explores the stress of “keeping up with the Joneses” and the exhaustion of comparing yourself to standards that weren’t meant for you.
The song’s honesty resonates, the message doesn’t feel preachy or polished. It feels personal, like J’mall is sharing life lessons. The record’s quiet strength is its embrace of individuality and personal responsibility without pretending it’s easy.
