SHEENA-RAE - "Wasted Energy"

Review by Adam Jones - MUSIC FARMER 5

London's Pop Prodigy Unleashes a Sonic Masterpiece of Resilience and Empowerment

Draped in the neon glow of synthpop majesty, SHEENA-RAE - London's pop/R&B luminary - makes her MUSIC FARMER 5 debut with an epic banger, "Wasted Energy". This monumental single establishes her as a phoenix in the world of pop music, reminiscent of the magnetic pull of global icons Ariana Grande, Doja Cat, and Nicki Minaj, yet blazing her own trail with a vibrant, unique voice.


"Wasted Energy" thrusts you into an intoxicating vortex of mesmerizing soundscapes. It's a universe where brooding synths and deep bass dovetail with the infectious dynamism of trap-style drums, a spectacular marriage of subterranean club beats and ethereal sonic grandeur. Like a celestial dance, it's an experience that oscillates between the terrestrial and the divine, all guided by SHEENA-RAE's enthralling vocal prowess.


SHEENA-RAE's voice is a beacon amidst this soundscape, illuminating every corner of the track with its resplendent aura. Her lower register brims with an audacious vitality that echoes the grit and allure of today's reality. The ascension to her upper register in the chorus, on the other hand, paints a celestial scene of a woman unbound, singing an anthem of self-belief that inspires and uplifts in equal measure.
