Conya Doss feat. B. Golden [2023] - 4everlasting [Self Released]

It's been a while since we heard new material from Conya Doss (since "Through Rose-Colored Glasses" in Jun '21 to be exact) but her new single "4everalsting" has been worth waiting for. It features Cleveland's (Bryan) B. Golden who she co-wrote the song with.

Conya Doss is also from Cleveland, OH, and began in a duo called Lyrik with Stacy Richardson-Crawford who has sang backing vocals for artists such as Ali-Ollie Woodson, Phil Perry, Gerald Levert and Anthony Hamilton.

After the duo split, Conya went solo, and independent, releasing all her material on her own label Conya Doss Songs. Her first album being "A Poem About Ms. Doss" in 2002. The last album was her ninth. Perhaps a tenth is in the pipeline?

Miranda Joan feat. CARRTOONS [2023] - Bada Bing! [Self Released]

Miranda Joan DiPerno was born in Montreal but grew up in Vancouver, and is now based in Brooklyn, NYC. She debuted with a self-released five track EP "Still" in 2017 and has since released more than a dozen singles along with the release of her debut album "Windborne" (Dec '21).

Since the release of her album she's released her seventh single "Bada Bing!" (named after the fictitious strip club HQ in The Sopranos TV series) which features Ben Car (CARRTTONS). The song explores the flirtatious Bada Bing! fireworks moment when you meet someone new. Miranda tells us:

"Italian culture in large part revolves around food, and in my house that love lives in the pasta sauce. To this day there are few things more comforting than a bowl of pasta, and so “red sauce kind of loving” is the only kind of love I’m looking for. A love that is imbued with the foundational principles of cooking a great sauce: low and slow."

The song is from her forthcoming sophomore album, "Overstimulated", due on 10 Nov
