Tayah\u2019s love for authenticity and vulnerability in her writing shines through as she explores various themes by delving deeper into the emotions that encompass the human psyche.<\/p>\n<p>The B-side is a soothing and healing, atmospheric blend of harmonies and beats that will hit you right in the soul, contrasting with the punchy A-side. Tayah\u2019s motto is: &#8220;Love is bittersweet; it&#8217;s up to you to make it bitter or sweet.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Tayah is a multi-talented artist who is at the fulcrum of an evolving R&amp;B scene. Tayah is a very different and uniquely wired musician who isn\u2019t afraid to break the rules and push the boundaries of our perception with her deeply layered lyricism and well-crafted production.<\/p>\n<p>Born and raised in West London, United Kingdom, Tayah has a drive, a focus, and a tenacity that will lead her to become a relentless and unstoppable force in the independent R&amp;B circuit. Tayah is making music that is driven by a desire to motivate, inspire, and tell her story her way.<\/p>\n<p>Tayah cites icons such as Patrice Rushen, Slum Village, Missy Elliot, and Mary J. Blige as the pivotal influences in her music. She is also an avid admirer of 70s and 80s soul as well as old school hip hop and \u2018Rare Groove\u2019, a genre native to the UK. This all culminates in Tayah producing an enjoyable, and easygoing musical experience that is authentic and grounded in reality. She is the founder of the socially conscious brand &#8220;Thee Resilient Ones&#8221; that seeks to create a safe space for relatable conversation, acceptance through merch and community projects.<\/p>\n<p>Tayah has garnered plaudits among her peers and audiences, having performed at venues such as The Southbank, Lovebox Festival, and Notting Hill Carnival as well as receiving airplay on both UK and USA radio.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Is It Me, Hennessy?\u2019 is available now <a href=\"https:\/\/smarturl.it\/isitmehennessy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">via all major platforms<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/3uUyboy4IWvaIX9thY9NFZ\" width=\"100%\" height=\"380\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Connect with Tayah<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/infinitayah\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a><\/u> | <u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tayahmusic.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Website<\/a><\/u> | <u><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/infinitayah\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a><\/u> | <u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UC0dLWd81RLvod0Vohi4Uyxw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">YouTube<\/a><\/u><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Featuring two tracks of the same name, and two different interpretations of the same theme, the release is a mesmerising demonstration of artistry, creatively expressed and executed immaculately.
