Shay Lia is generating a generous amount of buzz for her forthcoming EP SOLARIS. The budding singer-songwriter keeps the momentum going with the video release of “Love Me, Love Not.”
Described as a movement visual, director Caraz captures Lia in a sensual haze on a secluded beach. Her body moves with the gentle rush of waves, as she sings against the disappearing sun throughout the run-and-gun filmmaking.
Speaking on the new song, Lia said in a statement, “I wanted it to feel intimate and soft. I was definitely exploratory with this song — I wanted my listeners to feel how sensuality, pleasure and melancholy can blend into the same song and share the experience of being friend-zoned from a woman’s perspective.”
SOLARIS, the follow-up to last year’s Dangerous, which appeared on Rated R&B’s year-end best R&B albums list of 2019, is due out on September 25. The project will include the previously shared track “All Up to You.”
