Motown Records ushers in a return to historic soul music with Tiana Major9’s “Think About You” (Notion Mix) – a song that reveals her classic influences yet feels very “right now.” The song is the breakout star’s first solo release since signing with the label. Tiana’s impassioned, infectious refrain exudes raw longing alongside simmering reggae grooves on Notion’s dance floor-ready mix of the track, which is the first single from the young East London artist’s forthcoming EP.

Tiana has been named a VEVO DSCVR artist. Watch her live performances of “Think About You” here and her previous single, “Collide,” here. “Collide,” her collaboration with EARTHGANG, was the lead single from the critically acclaimed Queen & Slim: The Soundtrack. The track has over amassed nearly 20 million combined global streams while the official music video has over three million views. Tiana and EARTHGANG performed the song on the “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” at the Soul Train Awards ’19 and at Billboard “Women In Music 2019.”
Billboard declared, “Tiana Major9 is one to watch in 2020” and VICE hailed her as “a singular voice in British black soul.” Tiana 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.
“My sound is a fusion of everything I love – R&B, hip-hop, and jazz – but with my own spin on it,” says Tiana Major9. “I wanted to show my appreciation for pure music. Major 9 chords tend to be beautiful and uplifting, so I preserve my connection to jazz with the name. I’m trying to make something I genuinely feel is missing.”
