Nana Razaia Drops Catchy New Single “It’s Already Yours”
Rising singer, songwriter and producer Nana Razaia has unveiled her brand-new single, “It’s Already Yours”, which is accompanied by a colourful and vibrant music video directed by Reko. The single is taken from Nana’s newly released EP, Como Água. Hailing from Brockton, Massachusetts, and now based in LA, the independent artist already made a huge impression when she arrived on the scene back in 2018 with debut single “Spill” and has now elevated her sound to even greater heights with this latest release.
Having had a keen interest in music since her childhood, Nana showcases her range of talent on “It’s Already Yours”, with the track highlighting her silky vocals, clever songwriting and insanely addictive melodies. “If you want me, you know where to find me – I’m always running through your head”, she playfully sings on the catchy hook, which will easily be fixed in everyone’s head after one listen.
Speaking about the new release, Nana says, “Interestingly enough, ‘It’s Already Yours’ was the last song to make the cut for the EP, and it ties the whole project together so well. How it came about felt almost seamless; a couple of my homies started producing the track before I even stepped foot in the studio, and the lyrics came almost instantly. There wasn’t really much of a science when it came to the songwriting – I just wanted it to stick. The vocal processing and mixing were of my efforts after a couple of late nights. The whole process was so unplanned. I’m just glad I waited for it.”
A self-sufficient creative at the top of her game who can do it all and is involved in all aspects of her artistry from singing, songwriting and producing to mixing, engineering and directing, it’s clear Nana Razaia is a rare talent – one that doesn’t come around too often, making her an exciting prospect to watch out for. And she doesn’t plan on slowing down anytime soon, with more new music and visuals expected in the near future. In the meantime, “It’s Already Yours” and EP Como Água are available to buy/stream now on all platforms: https://ffm.to/comoagua.

“Pretty Ugly” by Archer Stevens stirs the soul with retro-modern rock vibes

From the outset, the track masterfully exudes an irresistible energy that embodies vintage and contemporary influences, acting as a sonic bridge between eras. The Phoenix-based ensemble skillfully weaves their influences into a pronounced, personal narrative.
A noteworthy aspect of the track is its instrumentation. Recorded across three diverse locations, Phoenix, Los Angeles, and even Peru, the song has a global resonance.

Lyrically, “Pretty Ugly” plays on contrasts, embodying the emotional push and pull of life’s dualities. The heartfelt lyrics evoke a sense of intimate admiration and longing to please a partner, while the melodic structure ensures the track remains uplifting despite its introspective qualities.
By drawing inspiration from the enduring spirit of rock legends such as Elton John, Joe Cocker, and the Rolling Stones, Archer Stevens pays tribute to their predecessors without resorting to imitation. The soaring vocals and driving rhythm establish “Pretty Ugly” as a cathartic anthem that appeals to classic and contemporary rock enthusiasts. With this debut, Archer Stevens distinguishes itself as a band unafraid to experiment and honor its musical heritage, thus carving out its unique sonic identity. The result is a richly layered auditory experience that captivates from the first listen, revealing engaging narratives within the music.
