“This song is a huge piece of my heart and I’m so excited for the world to hear it. I hope it brings people peace and healing, like it did for me,” says Hannah.
“Y” follows their second original song “No Ego,” an infectious, attitude-driven, empowered bop which was released in February and included in E! News MixetapE! Playlist and called “…a fierce and fabulous celebration of women recognizing their own worth.” In December 2020, the group debuted original music with power anthem “Call Me Queen” which Nylonincluded in their Soundcheck column and stated “Modern representation plus Danity Kane-levels of pop ear-worminess? This is the girl group we deserve!” while Refinery29 said “Citizen Queen kicks down the doors with their powerful official debut, and the perfectly placed harmonies, bass, and vocal percussion on the original song all but promise a top spot for the talented newbies.”
Alongside their executive producer team of Justin Tranter and NOVA WAV, Citizen Queen spent the better part of last year developing an arsenal of slickly-produced, superbly sung R&B-laced pop bangers and ballads. More to come from Citizen Queen soon.
