Nanii Acosta – New Me [Single + Live Performance]

Nanii Acosta’s “New Me” hits the sweet spot between a soulful jam and a tune you’d blast on a night out. Shaped by the talented production duo Flatbush Latto and GetEMDizz, this track is all about shaking off the old and stepping boldly into the new. Acosta hits you with the plain truth– “It’s a new, new me, peep my energy/  I’m a new new me I know you feel it” – telling us she’s evolved, and her renewed energy is something you can feel.

You can’t ignore Nanii’s voice–it’s got that perfect mix of sass and sweetness, catching your ear and holding on. And the beat brings together all kinds of electronic and organic elements, fanning a buzzy “late-night-to-early-morning” flame that’s tailor-made for extended club play. Rounded kicks, poppy rimshots, and luminous keys connect rumbling bass notes to drive the forward with slinky-sexy energy.

And while this is a decidedly catchy club cut it’s also a snapshot of a woman who has turned things around for herself and stepped up her game. She asserts her stance on dignity and self-assurance, particularly through the line, “Don’t wanna hear that you like me / Or wanna work unless it’s proper/ La Reina está aquí” meaning “The Queen is here,” casting her as the leading lady of her own story, embracing both grace and grit.

“New Me ” does double duty – it’s your soundtrack for a night out and a tribute to moving forward and molding yourself anew. Working alongside Flatbush Latto and GetEMDizz, this up-and-coming Afro-Dominican angel delivers a song that shows off music’s knack for sharing those make-or-break moments in life.
