The singer and songwriter known as
Shantay B has released her latest single, “Michael Kors.” The
track features an appearance by popular independent recording artist,
MC Moe Diamondz. It has been produced by Novaman and published on the
Novamanmusic independent record label. Smooth, ultra-feminine and
classy from head to toe, “Michael Kors” by Shantay B is a single
built on both natural and polished talents, and one which fans of
both R 'n' B and hip hop are sure to appreciate.
Shantay B cites as main artistic
influences such legends as Whitney Houston, Beyonce, and Frank Ocean.
The style of her own track, “Michael Kors,” bares resemblance to
the songwriting style of Beyonce, while the crisp, clean quality of
the vocal tracks are more akin to Whitney Houston. The end result is
a display of sonic finery which matches the themes of the track very
well.
Speaking of these topics, Shantay B
collaborator and co-writer Pierre Lawson explains, “The single
appeals to every individual that has a shopping fetish. The hip-hop
culture is becoming more influential on high fashion in 2014 and this
song is all about designers, hence, 'Michael Kors.'”
Shantay B was born and raised in West
Berlin, Germany. Her musical journey began at four years old, singing
and playing piano. By the time she was a teenager, she had moved back
to Louisville, KY with her family and begun operating as the music
minister of the church where her father was a pastor. It wasn't until
she moved to Charlotte, NC, however, that Shantay B finally met
producer, Novaman. The meeting would culminate in the writing,
recording and publication of “Michael Kors.”
Her official artist's bio relates their
meeting and collaboration on the single: “This was a pivotal point
in Shantay's music career because she never worked with any producer
that could convey her ideas and help to polish her writing abilities.
One day, Novaman was inspired by Shantay's normal fashion apparel,
which is usually an array from designers including Christian Dior and
Michael Kors. He was inspired to develop the 'Michael Kors' track and
presented it. Shantay was highly impressed and immediately began
inking her thoughts and emotions.
“The record was written and recorded
the same day. To add more 'girl power' to the record, independent
female recording artist MC Moe Diamondz provided her Harlem flow to
finesse the urban side of the record.”
Shantay B is currently recording her
new EP and has stated plans to impact the music industry in a
positive way.
“Michael Kors” by Shantay B is
available online worldwide.
