This upbeat and empowering synth pop song, which was produced by legendary producer Mark J. Feist and released by Hitmakers Entertainment, is about confidence, about how drawing attention to yourself and knowing your worth is a positive thing that everybody should be doing. “I wrote it wanting to make everyone who listened to it feel good energy and a little strength even.”
Shanice’s voice is sweet and powerful, similar to that of Billie Eilish meets Ariana Grande, while her music is a reflection of her diverse upbringing, drawing inspiration from a variety of genres, including Pop, R&B, 80s music, and jazz, and influence from the likes of Jennifer Hudson, Jamie Cullum, Gang of Youths, Hozier, and so much more.
At the age of 14, she competed in the German version of the nationally televised and worldwide franchise The Voice Kids, finishing as runner-up among a competition field of over 2,000 singers.
After high school, Shanice moved to Surrey, England to attend the very exclusive performing arts boarding school Hurtwood House, on their highest scholarship, which she earned over many other qualified candidates. Hurtwood House is considered one of the most exclusive private performing arts schools in the world, with alumni including Emily Blunt, Hans Zimmer, and many more. While there, Shanice studied music and performance, and she continued to write and record her own songs.
After graduating from Hurtwood House, Shanice went on to study music at Leeds Conservatoire, receiving her Bachelor’s degree in Pop Music. While there, she connected with Mark Feist, famed producer (Beyonce, Mary J. Blige, John Legend, etc) and Hitmakers Entertainment Label Head, who signed her immediately upon graduation.
