East London singer-songwriter Hamzaa has blessed us with her brand-new EP titled RUSH.
Teaming up with producer 1SRAEL, Hamzaa presents us with a soulful body of work that she uses to showcase her powerful vocals across five tracks. The EP features the previously released “Borderline”, as well as a collaboration with her friend and fellow east London songstress Kali Claire titled “Believe It”.
“This project was born out of a discovery phase,” Hamzaa wrote in an Instagram post. “I needed to learn who I was all over again. I needed to understand what it is I really even care about.”
“What I found was that, I have a lot of harboured trauma and emotions that I just haven’t really addressed yet, I have boundaries and mechanisms that I need to put in place in order to get myself back on my feet, but when you’re in survival mode its very hard to see the road ahead.”
“But the one thing I knew, is that as urgent as getting my life back together is, I cannot RUSH the healing process. I needed time to acknowledge everything going on around me first and let time heal all wounds.”
