Mahalia Harness Dancehall Energy With ‘Simmer’

Burna Boy features on the impeccably soulful new track...

Mahalia has dropped her new summer sizzler 'Simmer' – tune in now.

The explosive talent will release her debut album 'Love & Compromise' on September 6th, following sessions executively produced by Felix Joseph.

New single 'Simmer' is online now, with Felix Joseph working alongside co-producer Jonah Christian in the studio.

It pits Mahalia's soulful approach against some dancehall energy, with Burna Boy on hand to amplify the levels.

The keen-eared amongst you might well spot a vintage sample too: 'Simmer' utilises portions of portions of Jeffrey Harding's 'Playground Riddim' which was later sampled in Beanie Man’s iconic 1997 hit, ‘Who Am I (Sim Simma)’.

Tune in now.
