![Joy Oladokun by Rachel Deeb](https://femmusic.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/Joy-Oladokun-by-Rachel-Deeb2.jpg)
Acclaimed singer, songwriter, producer and performer, Joy Oladokun, releases her new song “DRUGS” on Amigo Records/Verve Forecast/Republic Records.
“I wrote ‘DRUGS’ about feeling like my vices weren’t vice-ing hard enough” Oladokun shares of the modern-day anthem. She continues, “I think it became really easy for me to medicate my anxiety or anger or disillusionment instead of addressing those things head on. This is song is about realizing that and finding a new way to get by.”
The new music follows the “stunning” (Billboard) recent release of her song, “QUESTIONS, CHAOS, & FAITH,” her rendition of Beyoncé’s “II Most Wanted” for Apple Music Sessions and the Jack Antonoff collaboration, “I Wished On The Moon,” featured on the official soundtrack for Apple TV+’s The New Look.
Both “QUESTIONS, CHAOS, & FAITH” and “DRUGS” will be featured on Oladokun’s highly anticipated new studio album. More details to be announced soon.
Oladokun will tour throughout the rest of the year including dates with Hozier and Tyler Childers as well as select headline shows.
