CHAINS” was written and produced by Arika Kane, Lou Humphrey and Jasmon Joyner. The sultry pop-R&B ballad is available on all downloadable and streaming platforms now.
“Musically I wanted to get back to my roots and my love for R&B on this record. The lyrics express the process and transition that most go through after heartbreak. It’s based on a personal experience of mine that I felt needed to be expressed in song in knowing that many people have been through it at some point in their lives and can relate to the same experience,” mentions Arika.
Earlier this year, Arika Kane released her rendition of the classic, “Love Makes A Woman” to rave reviews. The Barbara Acklin song became a certified Top 10 single across all streaming charts.
