Fousheé, "single af" [📷: Fousheé]R&B artist Fousheé returns with the compelling “single af” where she’s single, ready to mingle, but not ready for another commitment.

“I can proudly say I’m, I’m / Say that I’m / Single as fuck.” Well, that’s definitely blunt AF 🎙 Fousheé.  The good news is that we know exactly where the 🎵 “Deep End” R&B singer stands on her latest single, fittingly titled, 🎵 “single af.” She cowrote “Single af” with 🎙 Jared Solomon aka Solomonophonic and 🎙 Matthew Burnett, with both ultimately producing the record.

Perhaps the f-bomb will offend those who are against the profane nature modern music but give Fousheé credit for making the chorus incredibly musical.  Melodically, it’s gimmicky, slick, and quite playful – atonement for being potty mouthed in my book! She makes it clear that she is single because the past love has been flawed and totally not worth it.  Even so, she’s ready to try again. “Finally ready to go out and get it,” she sings at the end of the first verse, continuing, “Never felt so sexy, feel bad for my exes / I’m living my life.”  Here’s the deal though, she may be “single, ready to mingle,” but she’s also “Not ready to settle but practice is helpful.” And of course, she’s confident AF.


Final Thoughts 💭

Ultimately, “single af” is a fun, refreshing R&B song.  Fousheé is feeling liberated, ready to get back into the dating game, yet, not necessarily ready for another commitment.  It is a song that should be relatable to women everywhere and probably some guys.  She sounds great, particularly on that explicit, unapologetic chorus.  Furthermore, Solomonophonic and Matthew Burnett give her a superb, soulful backdrop to work with.
