Today's video is See U Never by NIKI. Her full name is Nicole Zefanya and she's from Indonesia. She started out uploading covers to YouTube and released her own songs Polaroid Boy and Anaheim. NIKI moved to America in 2017 and signed to the American media company 88rising which primarily manages Asian artists (Chinese singer Lexie Liu is also represented by them). She released the single See U Never in July 2017 and I LIKE U in September.
In May 2018 NIKI released Vintage, the first single from her debut EP Zephyr which came out later that month. Her other singles include Dancing with the Devil and lowkey, and her 2nd EP wanna take this downtown? was released last month
See U Never is an R'n'B song in the 90s style. Nice, chilled song. NIKI listened to American R'n'B music such as Destiny's Child and Aaliyah when she was young, since it was the kind of music her mum liked. She was actually only born at the end of the 90s, which makes me feel a bit old since I was a teenager in 1999! lol. Please note the song is explicit. :)
The official lyric video for the new song move! had been uploaded to YouTube but it appears to have been deleted for some reason! You can find it on Facebook though: https://www.facebook.com/88rising/videos/2330382053906359/
