Tapping into her softer side, Brooklyn rapper Siya lets down her guard for her latest single “Nights B4 You.” The slowed down track is a late night confessional that finds the Bed-Stuy native in her feelings.
In the run up to her upcoming debut album SIYAvsSIYA, releasing December 9th, the star of Oxygen’s Sisterhood of Hip Hop has been showing that she is capable of more than bullying tracks into submission and this latest release is a prime example of her versatility. Driven by a creeping piano motif and shuffling drum-line, “Nights B4 You” explores a broken relationship, with Siya rapping about how all the nights either before or with her ex-lover don’t matter anymore.
The third single off of SIYAvsSIYA, “Nights B4 You” follows up the somber “I Know I Know” and the more sinister “My Sons.”
A versatile 16-track effort, SIYAvsSIYA finds the Brooklyn native rhyming in many styles. Over the Brooklyn-style noir-ish boom-bap of “Body” and “OMD” to the dreamlike electronics on “Only You,” Siya proves that she can go toe-to-toe with the best rappers in New York City. Signed to RnB Money, run by R&B icon Tank, and distributed through EMPIRE.
