21-year-old Toronto-born singer and songwriter Ebhoni releases her debut EP titled ‘X’
The 4-track project includes Ebhoni’s breakout singles “MIA” & “Hit This” in addition to a newly released track titled “All To Myself” and the Caribbean infused R&B bop “X-Ting.”
Alongside the EP, Ebhoni also gifts us the new visual for ‘X-Ting.’ Directed by BBY Chris, the music video for “X-Ting” showcases Ebhoni in her element as she and her girls turn up to the hair salon for a post break up glow up. The colourful visuals mirror the track’s energy as she sings directly to the camera surrounded by 90 style paraphernalia.
Ebhoni’s string of animated, confident dancehall influenced R&B singles have won her critical success and a rapidly growing international audience. Ebhoni’s obsession for unrivalled production has led to her pairing with IzyBeats (Rihanna, Koffee), DJDS (Kanye West, Burna Boy), Doc McKinney (The Weeknd) and others who help synthesize Ebhoni’s broad range of influences into honest, authentic and immediate songs. In the middle of a productive 2019 run, Pitchfork wrote that she is “reclaiming the Toronto R&B crown for women.” Throughout her career, Ebhoni’s made a point to partner specifically with Black-owned businesses, support other women artists and workers, and to uplift the local LGBTQ+ community, which she’s done through efforts like hosting Pride Toronto. Ebhoni is a must-follow.
