Rising Offaly singer Tolü Makay releases new single

Tullamore’s Tolü Makay has combined soulful pop with rhythmic hip-hop for her new single Behavin Like a Lil B.

The song has been skillfully produced by her long-time collaborator Enda Gallery.

Tolü said: “Behavin Like a Lil Bitch is a song with attitude. It’s the song you need when you just have to call someone out. I also make reference to men who hit on women and can’t take no as an answer.

"I was inspired by 90s HipHop and a really cool artist I found called Kahlo. I’m enjoying incorporating more parts of my background into the production and lyrics, and having fun with the process of bringing this album to life. Here’s a song you can now play to someone that's Behaving Like a Lil B."

Since her viral cover version of the The Saw Doctors’ classic 'N17' with the RTE Concert Orchestra in January of this year, the young Nigerian-born singer-songwriter has become one of the most exciting newcomer artists in Ireland. Tolü’a debut album is due early 2022.

Tolü has just announced a headline show at Vicar Street, Dublin, presented by Aiken Promotions, Friday, October 15. Support on the night will be from Lucy McWilliams. Tickets are on sale now via ticketmaster.ie
