Toronto artist Saya has a style all her own – something that fans and bloggers alike tend to look for while searching the blogosphere for fresh new talent. Blending dance, hip-hop futurism with reggaeton beats and remnants of pop undertones, the sky’s the limit for this 23 year-old!
New single, “Played Out,” taken from her upcoming EP, Sugar Coated, due out September 6, is an anthem of newfound self-love and respect as one realizes their worth in a relationship gone sour.
“It’s probably my favorite track off the EP. At the time I wrote it I was going through a tough break up and it highlights the series of conversations we had. I feel like during the relationship I was still learning to love myself and there were many times where I allowed my ex to make me feel insignificant. I love this song because I watched it grow into something powerful and renewing in a sense. I’ve never made a dance song before and I’m happy I got to make it on my own terms, as it is something different for me. The song is a celebration of being able to accept that the relationship was done and being able to let it go.”
