Nilüfer Yanya live at Bristol Thekla (Jessica Bartolini / Live4ever)
Nilüfer Yanya has released a video for H34T RISES after beginning world tour dates last month.
Taken from this year’s debut album Miss Universe, Yanya has said the song originally came together ‘a year or so ago’. “I had the rough demo and beat on my phone for maybe a year, but it wasn’t until the lyrics were fully realised that that it really took shape as a song for me,” she continues.
“The original track works perfectly in the album but when I decided to re-release it as a single, I thought a few changes to the mix and structure might help it jump out more and that’s where ‘H34T RISES’ came from.”
