All while putting finishing touches on the new project, burning the mic on Funk Flex Freestyle and releasing fan favourites like "
Run Run" and "Be Good". "Lick" is Shenseea's first official single of 2022 and will be off her upcoming debut album coming out this year. More information on that soon.
