Sayah’s latest single “Fruit” is a sassy slice of soulful pop bound to resonate with anyone struggling to move on from their ex. She says the track is about those times “When you’ve got an insane connection with someone but you know they’re not good for you, so you try everything to move on including seeing new people. But no matter what, they’re always on your mind and it’s so freaking annoying! At the same time, you also kinda love it. Ughhh the confusion!”
You might not know her name yet, but chances are you already know Sayah’s voice. She has performed as a feature vocalist for Peking Duk, Cosmo’s Midnight, and Set Mo. She’s also provided backing vocals for acts including Safia, Thandi Phoenix, and KLP. However, over the last two years she’s also focused on her own writing and recording.
