Finally, R&B newcomer Aáyanna got to release her debut EP, Don’t Look Back.

Since her debut late last year, the Chicago native has been making waves, thanks to her immaculate voice and sultry style. This 7-song EP shows us what Aáyanna is all about.

Focus track “Gaslight” is a sensual track that came paired with a music video with that 2000’s aesthetic. Other tracks include “Can You Take It” and “Show Up”.

“Releasing ‘Don’t Look Back’ is a pivotal moment for me, especially it being the first body of work in my catalog. I was really inspired by sirens and duality while recording this project. From what I heard and read about sirens, they exude this sex appeal that I admire as someone ruled by the planet Venus. I was also really inspired by duality, and the idea that I can be two things at once or that two opposing things can be true at the same time. I can express my hatred for someone and still be sad that I lost them; or sing about how I never want to hear from them again and ask them to come see me anyway, all in the same story. And because it’s all true, I think it’s beautiful. I’ve allowed myself to say what I need to and move on from it. Recording the songs on this EP taught me to trust my instincts and don’t look back.”
