SHiiKANE has dropped off a fresh new album, titled Sixty Diamond Seconds. Comprising of UK-born artists HRH Shay, Princess Annamay, and Baby-Kay who grew up in Nigeria, SHiiKANE cohesively fuse Afrobeats, R&B, and pop into a distinctly vibrant, energizing sound. Their musical journey began in 2013 with the debut single "Afurum Gi N’anya" produced by Legendury Beatz, and since then they have carved out their own lane with their invigorating genre-bending sound across releases such as "Lagbaja", "Yeah Yeah", and more. Their latest full-length project Sixty Diamond Seconds takes their vivid sound to new heights with its refreshing fusion of Afrobeats, R&B, and pop in a series of focused, infectious tracks.
SHiiKANE provide an array of uplifting, airy sonics on Sixty Diamond Seconds, distilled into potent tracks like "Secrets", which drifts with a dream-like feel enhanced by the trio's poignant vocals. Lead single "4LYF" contains a vital vibrancy that is simply infectious, as SHiiKANE deliver lively vocal melodies that build dynamically into a powerful, memorable chorus. "Ur Love"s rich grooves and soaring sound further capture the inspiring mood of Sixty Diamond Seconds, as they demonstrate a particular kinetic chemistry with focused vocal lines.
The latest from SHiiKANE, Sixty Diamond Seconds is a celebratory record with crystalline sonics and a vivid atmosphere that give it a character of its own.
