Motown Records released “Lucky,” a new track from Tiana Major9. A warm, soulful celebration of winning at love, “Lucky” is from her forthcoming EP.

Tiana Major9 says, “I’m so excited to share ‘Lucky’ with the world. It’s taken from my upcoming EP and was made to make you feel good!”
“Lucky” follows the breakout artist’s Motown solo debut, “Think About You” (Notion Mix) – a song that reveals her classic influences yet feels very “right now.” View the lyric video, which premiered on Teen Vogue, HERE. Tiana, who has been named a Vevo DSCVR artist, roots her bold blend of future-facing R&B, enduring soul, and hip-hop attitude in boundless jazz eloquence twisted up with saucy East London inflection and a touch of Jamaican spirit.
“Collide,” her collaboration with EARTHGANG, has amassed nearly 20 million combined global streams to date. It was the lead single from the acclaimed Queen & Slim: The Soundtrack. Naming it as one of the Best R&B Songs of 2019, VIBE, said, “‘Collide’ is an intoxicating duet that delicately intertwines neo-soul tranquility with harrowing emotion…pure gold.” Tiana and EARTHGANG performed the track on the “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” at the Soul Train Awards ’19 and at Billboard “Women In Music 2019.”
Earlier this year, Tiana featured on “Rainfall,” a track from Stormzy’s new album, Heavy Is The Head, which topped the Official Albums chart in the U.K. VICE has hailed Tiana as “a singular voice in British black soul” and Billboard declared, “Tiana Major9 is one to watch in 2020.”
