Raised between Lake Como and Milan, Italy, and now based in London, KINGH bends genres to their will on new single "DARE TO DREAM," released via Shy FX's Digital Soundboy imprint.
Produced by Shy FX, the track places KINGH's emotive, silky vocals front and center, gliding effortlessly over a retro-inspired groove that feels both nostalgic and refreshingly modern. Throughout the song, KINGH's diverse influences shine through, drawing from the experimental neo-soul of Erykah Badu, the psychedelic funk of Funkadelic, and the genre-blurring artistry of Lenny Kravitz.
Lyrically, "DARE TO DREAM" explores the power of ambition and the courage required to imagine a bigger future for yourself. KINGH brings that message to life through an expressive vocal performance that makes each line feel sincere and aspirational.
Anchored by a lush, instantly memorable chorus, the track unfolds over hard-hitting drums that lend the production weight and momentum, reinforcing its themes of confidence, faith, and possibility.
Speaking on the meaning behind the song, KINGH explains: "'DARE TO DREAM' is about vision, ambition, courage, and giving yourself permission to want more. It represents confidence, faith, and mindset. Sometimes the hardest thing is allowing yourself to believe what is possible. This song is about stepping into that belief. I want people to hear it and feel uplifted, like they've been reminded to think bigger, dream boldly, and move towards what they truly want."
Shy FX adds: "My approach with 'DARE TO DREAM' was to create something that felt uplifting and expansive while still carrying weight and soul."
"DARE TO DREAM" serves as the opening track from KINGH's forthcoming six-track debut EP of the same name, arriving June 26 and produced entirely by Shy FX.
