After a short hiatus, Yeshi returns with her latest, electrifying single, 'I Remember The Night', which captures the essence of a night out.
Yeshi, the 24-year-old Ethiopian-English recording artist, has made a powerful comeback with her new single ‘I Remember The Night,’ produced by CERTIBEATS. This modern dancehall/rap track marks her return after a short hiatus, and it’s set to be the precursor to a series of upcoming releases.
Born in London and raised in Brighton, a city known for its rich music history, Yeshi embodies her Ethiopian heritage and Western upbringing through her art. From dancehall to Afrobeats and hip-hop, few stones are left unturned in her sound, which encapsulates a candid emotivity, that she perpetuates through contemporary pop balladry and dexterous piano playing.
Inspired by a chance encounter, ‘I Remember The Night’ captures the essence of an unforgettable night out. “The song is about how we met, felt an instant attraction, and the story that unfolded from just one meeting,” Yeshi explains. This unique storyline is illuminated by rich lyrical depth and nuanced instrumentation, proving that she is an artist willing to carve out her own lane as she returns to a life in music.
As she continues to evolve, Yeshi is working on her debut EP, promising to delve deeper into her Ethiopian and British influences while solidifying her distinct sound. With ‘I Remember The Night,’ Yeshi is poised to make a lasting impact on the global music scene.
