Hip-hop/R&B artist Luv Troi released his colorful single “PINK” on February 14 as a Valentine’s Day anthem for lovers and listeners. Filled with vibrant colors and all the emotions that go into a passionate relationship, the song is about the flood of feelings that come with dating and new love. Troi created the song in his bedroom studio with his friend and collaborator Cleme. “We were chopping up a sample and when he finally got the chords down I just couldn’t get the chorus melody out of my head,” says Troi.
“PINK” is the lead single off Luv Troi’s upcoming album. He says the track is a solid introduction to what the album and future singles will feel like. The enjoyment that went into creating the song and music video is reflected in both. Troi’s vocal layering and tight beats create a chill and catchy environment for the sweet lyrics. Troi purposely timed his release for the most romantic weekend of the year. “This is definitely a song to add to your date playlist,” he says.
Luv Troi is a hip-hop/R&B artist currently living in Los Angeles. From a young age, he felt he had a strong sense of maturity of intuition that led him to start finding his purpose in life early. Through the years, Luv Troi picked up countless instruments just to later put them down. He bought turntables in 6th grade and tried out being a DJ for 6 months – he even rapped as “Troi Boiii” at the age of 13 on Soundcloud. It wasn’t until high school when Luv Troi fell in love with production and knew music was his “thing” and that it was his platform to better society and influence others. He enrolled at ICON Collective where he studied music production for a year. Shortly after arriving in L.A. at ICON, he started recording vocals and writing over his beats. He released his first song in March of 2020 called “Girl I I” and has since released a handful of singles. Fans can look forward to Troi’s upcoming singles and album releasing later this year.

Acclaimed Pop Indie Artist Kingsley Unveils Women’s Empowerment Song & Video “I’m Fine”
Renowned indie pop artist Kingsley first earned critical acclaim in 2017 when she found herself at the forefront of Portland’s fierce, female-led underground music scene with her hit single “Ghost” and subsequent EP I Am Because I Am (2018). Hailed as an artist who has “crafted a sound that transcends genres and challenges expectations (PRP),” the singular singer-songwriter is now back as she unveils her first full-length album starting with the indomitable “I’m Fine” song and video available here According to Kingsley, the debut track – as well as the rest of the music from her forthcoming album Crying On Holidays (slated for Spring 2021) – embodies a more mature sound that is “shaping into its own.” She explains that “I’m Fine” is especially reminiscent of the House Music she grew up listening to in her native city of Chicago while its lyrical content and message of self-empowerment were the result of a recent break-up.
Kingsley co-wrote “I’m Fine” with friend and #WomxnCrush Music Founder and CEO Ashley Kervabon-Stoyanov. The song also features Amy Evans on background vocals, Jack Mortensen as producer/beat maker and was mixed and mastered at Sunset Digs by Sean Berhamen. To support the release of the single, Kingsley has also teamed up with an all-Black American, female team to produce the inspiring “I’m Fine” video. The entire cast and crew for the video, including director, choreographer, camera women, photographers, stylists, and dancers were all Black-American, female women from Portland. “It was very important for me to, first, work with an all-Black team and, second, that the team be all women,” said Kingsley. “Why was this important? Because, I live in Portland, which is a very white city and I have had the honor to work with so many talented people but not as many people-of-color as I would have liked. Showcasing amazing Black women, who live in Portland, means the world to me.” “I’m Fine” is the first in a series of singles and videos that Kingsley will be releasing prior to her Spring album launch. According to the artist, she plans to unveil each new track on the 15thof the month and the video on the last day of the month. The “I’m Fine” single is available now on all DSPs and the video will be available here For more information about Kingsley, visit iamkingsley.com and Social Media: Facebook: Kingsley Music Instagram: @yokingsleymusic Twitter: @yokingsleymusic“‘I’m Fine’ is a really dope statement about how I feel about my past relationship,” said Kingsley. “I’m giving power back to this phrase. I’m saying that I am legit doing fine without him and, after you listen to this tune, you will too, honey."
