QUIÑ: G-Eazy collaborator readies for the release of her debut EP.
In an email from her publicist, there was QUIÑ, a rising singer-songwriter from Los Angeles, California. Striking like the women I believe she resembles (Beyoncé’s classic beauty and face, and Omahyra Mota’s edge), QUIÑ self-identifies her music as a “fantasy soul”. Before this moment, the 20-year-old was best known for her feature on G-Eazy’s song, ‘Think About You’.
As she carves her way to the top, she has been featured on some notable music blogs and appeared on an episode of REVOLT. She is an industry sweetheart, melting one heart at a time with her galactic brand of R&B. Listen to her new track titled, ‘I AM’. Then, be on the lookout for the release of her debut extended play too. It comes out on Friday, October 28. We’re looking forward to hearing it.

From California, she’ll remind you of a Erykah Badu / Corrine Bailey Rae hybrid and leave you satiated on a cool Sunday night and take you to space… Literally. QUIÑ actually collaborated with Apple Music this Summer as one of the artist who’s music they’re sending to actual space. For a taste of her live, check out QUIÑ’s session on REVOLT which aired last month.
