"A standout presence" - Vibe
(New York, NY): Today, multi-instrumentalist, singer, songwriter & producer Masego released "Queen Tings," another track off his highly-anticipated debut album, 'Lady Lady', out this Friday, September 7th.
Inspired by Black History Month, 'Black Panther,' and South Africa's energy, the Tiffany Gouché-featuring "Queen Tings" perhaps exemplifies Masego's unique style most effectively. He builds looped beats around subtle saxophone accents on the melody, fitting all of his wide-ranging influences into the short track before a beautiful saxophone outro.

'Lady Lady' features SiR, Kehlani, FKJ, Dewayne Jackson and showcases Masego's many sides: funny and flirty, wide-eyed and coming-of-age, mysterious and moody. It's his breakout moment, his definitive statement as a young artist.
Masego puts his unabashedly sultry-smooth sound on full display as he demonstrates a unique intersection of soul trap, R&B, jazz, rap, and dance.

It's been years since his first heartbreak, but Masego is still reconciling with the emotions tied to the event. In many ways, 'Lady Lady' is a coming-of-age record that showcases all the sides of Masego's musical personality. At its core, all the songs reflect his experiences with women and how women made him see more of himself.
