Meet multi-talented artist, actress and creator Amani Lia. Hailing from Hertfordshire (UK), the newcomer has already received a praise from BBC Introducing. Her second single “Tit 4 Tat” is a delicate slice of alt r&b and neo-soul where she shines brightly. Her vocals effortlessly glide over silky smooth keys, clean rimshots and soulful sax solos that would melt any concrete wall.
Taking inspiration from her parents’ relationship, the singer uses the song to explore the daily struggles of partnership, the petty back and forth and the notion that even when arguments become a regularity, you overlook these meaningless spats in the name of love. Being from a mixed Indian and Pakistani heritage, there is added complexity to this parental conflict and added weight behind the power of a committed bond.
She is a force to be reckoned with and I sense nothing, but brightness ahead of her. This will simply blow your mind.
