AYONI
“BEFORE I PROSPER”
"...rich, soaring vocals." – THE FADER "One to watch." – V MAGAZINE "...voice of a goddess." – POPSUGAR "Ayoni is the voice of those who can't speak up." - ONES TO WATCH
Bajan singer and multi-instrumentalist Ayoni offers another tantalising glimpse into her upcoming EP with the new single “Before I Prosper” – following on from the stunning “You Said I Love You Too Soon.”
An electro-pop powerhouse with her own unique soundscape, curating her style with a talent for technical production, a series of synths and metallic production elements dance over “Before I Prosper” pushing the boundaries of the genre. A truly dynamic single, the changing paces blend moments of earnest quietness next to those with all the energy of a pop bop, with Ayoni’s shining vocal talent at its core. Acknowledging a lack of clarity, Ayoni delicately enables the anger and frustration of humanity in the track. Diving into disclosure, she finds healing through honouring her growth in the metaphorical darkness that ultimately leads to the light.
Born in Barbados but now splitting her time between LA and London, Ayoni grew up bouncing around Singapore, Indonesia and America – something she frequently draws on to guide her musical journey as both a young, Black woman and an immigrant. Building a fanbase via beautiful singles like “If You Leave” and “The Patriots”, Ayoni’s acclaimed debut project Iridescent saw her break through with a brilliant exploration of the ups and downs of blossoming into her full self. Taking part in the Black Lives Matter movement with the poignant “Unmoved (A Black Woman Truth),” the 2020 single cemented Ayoni’s status as a bold new artist unafraid to confront raw truths in her music.
Racking up millions of streams and co-signs coming in strong from the likes of V Magazine, DJ Booth, Popsugar, Our Culture, NPR, Euphoria, She Makes Music and The Wild Honey Pie, Ayoni proved her potential as a multi-faceted creative when she co-produced and featured on Ricky Reed’s “No Stone” with Dirty Projectors.
Continuing to push sonic boundaries by infusing her moody and ethereal pop sound with a beautiful adaptation of island soul, Ayoni is set to break new ground as a rising pop prospect. With Ayoni’s EP soon to come in August, keep your eyes hooked on her.
