Born in Shetland and now based in Edinburgh, Philomenah’s debut ep “White Dove” is slated for release on 25/02/22. Her first full project is a collaborative effort with producer RJ Cherry. “white dove” is imbued with themes of emotional abuse, toxic love, heartbreak and sexual empowerment. A 6-track project, it chronicles the experience of falling for someone who is not what they appear to be; the harrowing ordeal of becoming romantically attached to a lie.
Including the previously released “aphrodisiac” and “god help the girl”, “white dove” also features 2 brand new songs which, along with the intro and interlude, comprises a project that concisely explores the pain, isolation, confusion and healing involved with being a victim of narcissistic abuse.
Featuring soundbites from various forms of media and spoken word from Philomenah herself, there is a conceptual overtone to the EP inspired by independent cloud rap artists such as Bones. Sonically, the primary inspirations for the r&b-focused EP are Mariah the Scientist, Kehlani, Summer Walker, Tinashe and Drake; and the project is produced, mixed and mastered almost entirely by RJ Cherry.
