Fresh from performances on NPR's legendary Tiny Desk and Colors (not to mention a MOBO nomination in the UK), rising R&B / Soul star Shaé Univers e offers up a new single 'Journey To The Sun' featuring a sublime verse from Mississippi R&B artist Ariel J.
At this time of year, we often see talk about issues of mental health, both in terms of the negitative and the positive in overcoming it - or just being there for your fellow human. It just happens some folks are equiped to make a positive "soulful, honest track" like Shae Universe who is on a 'Journey To The Sun'.
"Shae’s jazzy approach to this deeply reflective song allows the space for every word to be entirely felt, whilst the intricate instrumentation perfectly compliments her captivating voice. Ariel J. feels like the perfect addition to the track with her witty, authentic punchlines that further emphasise the overarching messages of the song - maintaining hope and giving yourself grace whilst doing so".
When asked about her sentiments on the song Shae says: “I’m usually quite vulnerable in my songs but somehow this feels like one of my most vulnerable songs yet. Sometimes I look around at the world just continuing on whilst I feel all these intense feelings and wonder if it’s only me that feels them. Deep down I know it’s not and I believe this song perfectly captures the alienating yet shared human experience of what can feel like suffering in silence. Special thanks to Ariel J. too for embellishing this track in the most special, uplifting way. My wish is that this song encourages people to approach 2026 and beyond with a hopeful heart, trusting that everything is always okay eventually.”
2006 might start at the Comedy Store, but i don't think that's where it will end!
