Yulanda Sabrina

R&B sensation Yulanda Sabrina is bringing lockdown optimism with her new track ‘Easier’. The singer who resides in London is proving how much quality she posses, and it is quite hard to believe that this is her debut. She boasts confidence from the get-go. From her opening vocal, we hear the artist delve into a realm which not many go. Her sound is reminiscent of the greats, but yet it is so far in her corner it shouts distinction.

Mustie

A record which fulfils any hip hop enthusiastic wishes. It comes full of surprises. Let’s kick off with the prelude.
