Hand me a crayon Muse, hand me a crayon Let me choose my insanity Let me draw whatever way I compose I kiss the face of curiosity I got seven more to go The alchemist will tell you We traveled far through devils and thieves and scars Only a trained eye could discern These folks, they had me at every turn Sank deep, moving sheep To a steep decline This gene is unfamiliar with angles and lines Sank deep, moving sheep To a steep decline This gene is unfamiliar with angles and lines Hand me a crayon Muse, hand me a crayon Let me choose my insanity Let me draw whatever way I compose I kiss the face of curiosity I got seven more to go Sank deep, moving sheep To a steep decline (Ooh) this gene is unfamiliar with angles and lines (ooh-ooh) (Sank deep, moving sheep) Muse, hand me a crayon (To a steep decline) Oh (this gene is unfamiliar with angles and lines) Uhh

about

September 2nd 22 / Lagos, Nigeria Nigerian singer-songwriter Preyé is ready to deliver her much anticipated 7-track debut EP, Don’t Look Down! centred around love and self-discovery.

The budding songstress is unburdened and carefree as she floats on every beat, teasing unique flows and using her honeyed vocals to sing us through the many stages of finding and loving herself and the people around her. Don’t Look Down! achieves everything a solid R&B/Soul record should – head nodding production, evocative storytelling and an attitude that reminds you that indeed, this artist is one to pay attention to.

To anchor the release of Don’t Look Down! Preyé enlists rapper LADIPOE for the project’s lead single Love, Today - a perfect end-of-summer track. As the two artists exchange flows over pulsing 808 drums and a lingering guitar loop, we experience genuine chemistry and connection that has now become rare in music.

Preyé continues to show a level of mastery with her writing and vocals that is truly exceptional and highlights a star in the making.

In June, Billboard listed her hot single “Malibu” as one of their Top R&B finds. She was also recently selected as one of six artists for Spotify’s Africa Month global campaign, Spotify Sounds of Africa, alongside LADIPOE, Zoë Modiga, Nomfundo Moh, Chris Khaiga and Nikita Kering.
