New Orleans-native, R&B powerhouse Lucky Daye debuts his new single “NWA” ft. OTF Chicago rapper Lil Durk. To coincide with this, he also announces the release date for his highly anticipated upcoming album, Candydrip – out March 10th via Keep Cool/RCA Records.
Produced by longtime collaborator D’Mile, “NWA” ft. Lil Durk blends Daye’s smooth vocals over a trap infused, bossa nova-esque synth beat. The track follows the release of previous singles “Candy Drip” and “Over,” both met with critical acclaim upon release. Daye delivered an electrifying performance of “Over” on the BET Soul Train Awards last fall where he was also nominated for Best Male R&B Artist.
Lucky Daye is set to embark on a tour through North America this spring, kicking off March 18th in Portland, OR. Catch him in Texas as he performs in Dallas, Austin, and Houston (Dates below).
Daye is currently nominated for two 2022 GRAMMYs in the Best Traditional R&B Performance and Best Progressive R&B Album categories for his EP Table For Two released last Valentine’s Day (Feb 2021). The project features some of the industry’s most accomplished female artists, including a collaboration with recent-breakout star Yebba entitled “How Much Can A Heart Take.” The two delivered an emotionally-charged performance of the single on Jimmy Kimmel Live!.
In addition to his accolades for Table For Two, Lucky Daye also contributed a stellar rendition of Marvin Gaye’s “Mercy Mercy Me” as part of Spotify’s popular series Spotify Singles; collaborated with the legendary Earth, Wind, and Fire for “You Want My Love”; and performed at this year’s Day N Vegas Festival.
