Washington D.C., November 6, 2021 -- Phillie-BOP Productions, LLC announced today the upcoming single release from their prevalent RnB/Soul artist Rina Chanel. Sweetest of Melody is the fourth single from this beloved singer released by the label. The single is part of the upcoming EP Rina, to be released in 2022 by Phillie-BOP's future indie label Soul Phinesse Records.
Born in Brooklyn, N.Y. and raised in Virginia Beach, VA, Chanel has captivated audiences throughout the years with her solid musical foundation and classical proficiency, learning to sing in French, German, Italian, and Czech. She attended The Governor's School for the Arts in Norfolk, VA, and went to Radford University on a voice scholarship.
Her musical influences include Sade, Anita Baker, Mariah Carey, Natalie Cole, Tamia, Whitney Houston, Luther Vandross, Babyface, and many others.
Rina performed background vocals for International Recording Artist Tracy Hamlin. In 2017, she featured on Baltimore producer Raymond Barton's EP If Only for Love, performing Don't Give up on Love. In 2019, she performed lead and background vocals with the Northern Virginia-based band Groove Factor.
"Sweetest of Melody" is earmarked to hit the streets on November 6th. It's no coincidence that the chosen date is Rina's birthday, making this a cherry-on-top moment.
The song is a combination of smooth Jazz, RnB with a classic soul and pop flare. It's a heartfelt love song with a wide variety of instrumentation, all arranged consummately to fit the format perfectly. The saxophone riffs by Terry Thompson are smooth as can be and bring out the track's heart and soul.
As always ¦. Rina's vocal performance is dazzling, coupled with featured vocalist Senghor Robinson in the second verse, which rounds out this stellar single.
