Freak by Shanique Marie

For EM18 The Queen of the Cool Kids Club and cutest of the ​‘Eternal Children​,’ ​Shanique Marie delivers a spicy number, livicated to her personal celebration of freedom to live her life how she chooses too.

‘​when gal bad gal bad, can’t stop gal from bad​’

Co-Written with & produced by the like-minded Equiknoxx family ​Gavsborg​. ‘​Freak’ is dancehall meets Kumina meets Lords of Yards and Jerry Springer dancehall moves. Embodying the energy of the colourful late 90s era of ‘​British Link Up​’ crew & the ​nightlife flamboyance of ‘LaRoose Nightclub’ all sugar-coated with the trappings of modern day dancehall. ‘​Freak’ is prime dancefloor material while being a quick edit away from resonating with a New York City Ballroom. (​Think ​DJ Mike Q​’s ‘B​ashment Vogue’​....... maybe​)

*Bad meaning; independent, free & expressive

The cover art is a collaboration with cinematographer ​Jordan Morris aka Jrdn Mars coupled with ​Gavsborg’s DIY graphic design aesthetic.

P.s. Thanks to ​Riddim Writer​ for her shout out to ​Nick ​(runs throughout track)​ who is always the answer.
