FIOR releases a new fresh single and music video “YOYO”

Today, emerging independent pop/R&B hybrid artist, FIOR releases her latest single and video for “YOYO.” YOYO” (You’re On Your Own) is a summer-ready disco-funk track with a bright and memorable hook that highlights FIOR’s rich and soulful vocals. Driven by a heavy-hitting 90’s-inspired bassline, produced by the legendary Scott Storch, the infectious record celebrates the freedom of moving on and cements FIOR’s status as a star on the rise. The track is accompanied by a colorful video directed by Alfredo Flores (Ariana Grande, Rihanna, Selena Gomez) that sees FIOR and her friends dancing and hanging out at a skatepark, who are keeping their eye on a particular mysterious skater.

The release of “YOYO” comes fresh off the heels of “Let Me Go,” FIOR’s defiant anthem decrying toxic cycles that served as the singer-songwriter’s debut single. Since its January 2022 release, the music video has amassed over 150K views – watch the video HERE. Both tracks will be featured on FIOR’s forthcoming debut EP out later this year.

About the track, FIOR says “These last two years have been so crazy but I feel like summer is now officially back and I’m going to make this one a year to remember! Anyone that’s not coming with good vibes, you’re on your own! #YOYO”

Kalpee Honors Heritage and Heart on His Emotion-Rich New EP Dougla Boi

Kalpee

Kalpee is back with Dougla Boi, a beautiful new EP that is both personal and powerful. It gives listeners a close look at the layers of identity, heritage, and emotion that make him who he is. The Trinidad and Tobago artist is confident in his own space, which is rooted in New Calypso and polished with hints of dancehall, R&B, and afrobeats. In this space, genre bends, but emotion leads.

Named after the Trinidadian word for someone of mixed African and Indian heritage, Dougla Boi is honest, proud, and warm about the complexities of culture. Kalpee opens a window into the dualities that define him across six tracks, turning personal truth into universal resonance. The EP is just under 19 minutes long, but every second is carefully planned to take listeners on a journey through courage, joy, healing, and the quiet strength that comes from accepting all parts of yourself.

The first single, “Under,” stands out right away for its calming yet emotionally charged experience. Kalpee’s voice flows over a beat that sounds both new and old, fitting the EP’s theme of bringing cultures together. It’s one of the best examples of how he can mix soft and hard sounds, which is what makes his New Calypso sound so unique.

“Everybody,” which features Full Blown, is another excellent song that has already done very well. It has a happy vibe and an infectious bounce, making it one of the EP’s most replayable songs. “Everybody” captures the spirit of community and shared experience, which is what Kalpee means when he says that identity is not a box but a rhythm.
