Beautifully talented veteran singer and songwriter, Candice Pillay. Looks to make up for lost time this year, as far as releasing her own solo work. As much of her nearly decade plus has been spent as a great songwriter for everyone from Dr. Dre to Rihanna and Christina Aguilera. Just to name a few.
Aside from her 2015 EP, The High. Which she released through her at the time deal with KIDinaKORNER/Interscope Records. Pillay has been fairly quiet as far as her own solo releases. That changed just recently though. As the very talented singer and songwriter, released last Friday her very beautiful newest single, Hotel Avenir. The first release from her long-awaited and highly-anticipated just announced new, The Rise EP. Which is set to be released at the end of this month, on April 30th.
Pillay saying she will release a new single/record from the EP. Each Friday for the next few weeks, leading up to the EP’s actual release at the end of the month. So keeping with her promise, Pillay released just this past Friday, her very beautiful latest single, Honey Boy. One of the most beautiful records you may ever hear in your lifetime. The very beautiful new record is one that really let’s Pillay show off her beautifully amazing vocals. As she so beautifully sings over the very acoustic backdrop about a former lover and/or boyfriend she had when she was younger and felt was so good like honey. That she would never end and let go, but she realized later on she was way too young and jaded to see that she gave way too much to them. But they may not have given enough of that love back to her and why it was more of a lie and/or fairytale.
Honey Boy, in a lot of ways like, Hotel Avenir, is another one of those really emotionally beautiful records. That so many other men and/or women that feel they’re in love, whether it be in or out of a relationship can relate to. Pillay’s very beautifully emotional vulnerable vocals/lyrics on the record. Making you feel all the good, bad, beautiful and sad emotions conveyed throughout the song. That are all results from love and make it such a beautiful record.
