The debut album by Aiza finds the Toronto-based Canadian singer in the peak of her powers. Titled Sovereignty, this 11-song collection is a celebration of her growth into a confident and unapologetic woman (and artist).

The album dives into my experiences dealing with heartbreak, healing my inner child, honoring my lineage and boldly owning the fact that I’m a star,” shares the Montreal-raised singer.

Musically, we are treated to her euphoria-filled blend of Afropop and R&B. Title track “Sovereignty” is heavy on percussion and super infectious. Equally refreshing is the previously released song, “Majimbo”.

Aiza worked with her go-to producer C The Reason as well as other talented musicians.

She remarks: “To my precious and growing tribe around the world, thank you for believing in this little Burundian girl from Montreal. I have never been more proud to put out a project and I can’t wait for you to listen to it on repeat. May this album become the soundtrack to powerful awakenings and unforgettable nights spent dancing under the moonlight.

Watch “Sovereignty” music video above and then stream the whole album below via Spotify. I’ll definitely be coming back to this elegantly delivered project from to time.
