Talii Shares New Single ‘More Than Friends’

Florida-based singer and songwriter Talii has just shared her brand new single More Than Friends, a slick and sensual piece of Contemporary R&B music out now via DNA Music Group II. 
 
The first new song since the release of her EP Songs To Feel To, More Than Friends unleashes a brand new era for Talii with a fresh sonic edge as she gears up for the release of a string of upcoming singles. I am a fan of Talii's lush, emotive and soulful vocals that glide effortlessly over the sultry R&B production lined with hard-hitting Afrobeats. More Than Friends confronts vulnerability in ways Talii hasn't before explored in her lyricism and its whole atmosphere is incredibly captivating and perfect for bedroom sessions. Check it out below!

 

 

On the track, Talii describes:
'More Than Friends' actually started as a vocal sample that, my boyfriend/producer, Gbliz and I created. Phil Mango (of Luxury Lane) took the sample and added this amazing afrobeats bounce to it. More than friends is bringing the listener in on a conversation going on with a friend and I. She’s been venting about her toxic boyfriend, meanwhile, I’m insinuating that I can treat her better (“we could be more than friends”). It’s the first time I’ve ever shared my queer side in a song before so it’s nerve wracking yet freeing. I feel like the persona I take on in the song is a little more confident than I am when it comes to flirting with women lol but it was fun to embody that for this song.
