New York, NY (Top40 Charts) At 15 years old, British singer, actress, presenter and social media personality
Sophia Grace today independently releases her brand new single "
Number 1" which features Sony/Columbia UK recording act AJ X Deno.
"
Number 1" is a hypnotic, pop anthem infused with a soaring energy. Sophia's irresistible hooks and choruses give a nod to the pop stylings of singers like
Ariana Grande. The single is the first taste of original music from
Sophia in over a year and embraces the narrative of everyone's first crush.
Sophia Grace said: "I'm so excited about this record because I feel like this is my 'coming-of-age' song and it's a completely new sound for me. As I've grown up, my music has matured and I want my supporters to enjoy this journey with me. To make the record special, I asked the up-and-coming hip-hop duo AJ X Deno to join me on the track. This helps to give the song a more developed feel than my previous releases. The lyric video is also out on my YouTube channel now, so I hope everyone enjoys it."
