Denise Chaila is back with new single ‘061’, released today, Friday, 18th June 2021 on narolane records.
Produced by MuRli, ‘061’ sees the rapper’s commanding energy roll over a syncopated and medieval-themed beat. Denise exudes an empowering sense of autonomy and confidence for her community in the track, whilst retaining a healthy amount of wit and her signature cultural references.
Denise Chaila came to international attention last year after the release of her debut mixtape Go Bravely caught the attention of media across the world from NPR (“a limber lyricist”) to The Guardian (“turning heads from the outset”) to NME (“the name Denise Chaila holds regal status”) to France 24 (“Known initially as a rising star of Irish hip-hop, Chaila’s mixtape ‘Go Bravely’ has now propelled her to the top of the firmament”).
In Ireland, she was the highest-charting female solo artist in 2020 and Go Bravely won the Choice Music Prize album of the year award – making it the first time an artist had received the award before releasing their debut album.
