SONIQUE Releases New Song “Marinade”
South African singer-songwriter SONIQUE released a new song “Marinade” on August 2, 2024 via RADA Inspirational.
The song is the second single, following “Why Are We Still Here” released last month.
Both songs will appear on her upcoming debut album, which is expected to be released later this year.
It was written by Sonique Pitout amd produced by Mark Beling.
The music video for the song was released on August 16, directed by Rici Martins.
Also, “Marinade” is featured on “RADA Unearthed Volume Three”, a compilation album showcasing South African artists sharing messages of inspiration through their music.
The track centres around how one reacts to personal challenges that life throws at us.
It's about how you overcome problems instead of letting them define you, finding a positive outcome when there seems to be none and growing from it.
SONIQUE said of the song, “Marinade is about realising that our darkness is part of the journey that shapes us to be stronger, wiser and powerful beings. One should stay confident, keep believing and discover your purpose.”- SONIQUE is a deep poetic lyricist: Her music evokes a spectrum of feelings – from the euphoria of happiness to the melancholy of sadness and the fiery passion of anger.
She has been working with RADA for over a year on the music side and has done volunteer work for the non-profit for approximately four years.
She started as a solo artist this year. She finds joy in the process of crafting original music.
SONIQUE said, “Music gives me the creative freedom to express feelings I can't talk about and share stories that people can relate to.”
She added, “I want each of my songs to connect with people who relate to my lyrics on a deep and emotional level.” -
