Track of the Week: Forbidden Fruit

Rising Hackney-born songstress Mychelle enlists the queen of alternative rap ENNY for vibrant cut Forbidden Fruit.

Moonlighting as a boxer, singer-songwriter Mychelle caught the attention of listeners with her debut ’21 EP Closure, a project that drifted through genres with majestic ease, garnering praise from many of the big hitters. Returning with her sophomore EP Someone Who Knows on May 27th, Forbidden Fruit is the second offering from the upcoming body of work. 

Sun-kissed, serendipitous and silky, the summery instrumental lays foundation for Mychelle’s gorgeous vocals and seamless writing. ENNY’s meteoric rise over the last 18 months has been immensely refreshing, with the Root 73 starlet consistently illustrating her flawless technique, musical intelligence and lyrical maturity throughout her increasingly impressive discography. Here, she delivers a stylish, grandiose feature that deftly compliments Mychelle’s acoustic sensibilities and soulful intonations. 

There’s nothing better than a good collaboration. A feel-good anthem from two artists with huge futures.
