Yaya Bey announces her forthcoming album, Ten Fold
New York artist Yaya Bey has announced her forthcoming album, Ten Fold, along with the new single, "chasing the bus".
Picking up where she left off with her 2022 album, Remember Your North Star, and 2023’s followup EP Exodus the North Star, Yaya’s new album is a reflection on the past, present and future.
""chasing the bus" has a double meaning,” Yaya says of her new single. “On the surface, it’s about being taken for granted in a romantic relationship. Being slept on and underestimated. But beyond the surface, it’s a metaphor for how I feel in so many spaces in the industry and it’s sort of an affirmation for myself or a reminder to let go of validation or the lack thereof. To exist regardless because I have to."
