New track features a sample of  one of Busta Rhymes hits from 2005 ‘Touch It’. “I feel like this is the song everyone needs to hear as it gets hotter and the world eases up” – she explains.  “This pandemic hasn’t been easy on the brain, and with being indoors wearing joggers 24/7, it’s been hard to feel like a hottie, so I’m hoping this track will help.” She then added: “Typically for me, it’s about reaffirming your power and believing in yourself cause ‘you can never do it like a Brenda’. I want my fans to never feel afraid to hype themselves up, they’re the shit and they don’t need to wait for anybody to tell’em they are!”.

New track comes with a video that pays tribute to Busta Rhymes visuals from 00’s. It has amazing colours and alluring scenes of Bree and her girlfriends in a carwash, and also shots of the signer dancing around superbike in all white futuristic background. The song has a big chance to become this year’s summer hit.

Bree has released her debut mixtape ‘2000and4Eva’ in 2020 via Emi Records and UMG with well known singles: ‘Little Nokia’, ‘Damn Daniel’ and ‘ATM’. Album received four starts from NME describing it as: “a menacing and carefree offering — one in which Bree Runway manages to be bold, belligerent yet vulnerable throughout — from a different and altogether exciting new pop star”. It’s hard to put Bree Runway into one genre: rap, soul or punk-pop, she says about herself: “I’m all of those things“.

The artist talked about her biggest music inspiration with Vogue: “Everyday life. I can make music out of anything. Even that phone ringing, I could sample that. I grew up listening to Missy, Britney, Kelis, Lil Kim, Grace Jones, all the eccentric, out-there women. And men like Freddie Mercury, David Bowie. Those are my peopledem”. She added: “I feel like people experimented with sounds and crossed genres. It just gives me assurance in myself that what I’m doing isn’t so strange or left. It’s been done in different ways. You just need to focus on nourishing your way. I’m from here, but I don’t make Afropop or Afroswing or whatever. My genre is very much a fluid thing. You close your eyes for a minute… She’s a country singer. Oh, she’s a rock star. This is my comfort, this quirky eccentric world.”
