Muni Long surfaced in 2022 to become the new artist story of the year. Out of three nominations – including Best New Artist – she took home “Best R&B Performance” for “Hrs & Hrs” at the 65th Annual GRAMMY® Awards. Meanwhile, Usher hopped on the high-powered official remix of “Hrs & Hrs” earlier this summer. In addition she also lit up the stage at Essence Fest. Beyond placing among Spotify’s most-listened to modern R&B artists, she has also earned widespread acclaim from Billboard, ESSENCE, New York Times, NPR, People, Pitchfork, and many more.
Now, she ignites her next chapter with “Made for Me.” On the track, subtle guitar, soulful piano, and funky talk box accent a sultry and slick beat. Simultaneously, she flexes her dynamic vocal range. Through her breathy delivery, she admits, “This moment is surreal. I can’t put into words how I feel.” It culminates on the chantable lovestruck chorus, “You were made for me—just for me.”

Blige, Kelly Clarkson, and Selena Gomez, to name a few.“ |
