Ms. Banks turns up the heat with her electrifying new single, “Shake It,” a Jersey club anthem that’s as fierce as it is playful. Produced by R14, the track captures the exhilarating spark of locking eyes with someone across a crowded dancefloor. Teased earlier this year to an overwhelming fan reaction, “Shake It” is finally here, cementing Banks’ triumphant return to the spotlight following the bold statement made by her previous release, “Boss Btch.”*
With razor-sharp lyricism and a beat that pulses with energy, “Shake It” channels Ms. Banks’ signature intensity while exploring a wilder, more carefree side. The song rides the momentum of her viral freestyle on DJ AG’s platform and a candid appearance on GRM’s Thoughts in a Culli, where fans got an intimate glimpse into her world.
A South London trailblazer with Nigerian and Ugandan roots, Ms. Banks has long been a powerhouse in the British rap scene. Her career boasts collaborations with heavyweights like Stormzy, Tinashe, and Little Mix, as well as major tours with Megan Thee Stallion, Nicki Minaj, and Cardi B. Her accolades include a Forbes 30 Under 30 nod, the PRS Foundation New Artist Award, and performances at iconic events like the Queen’s Jubilee.
After taking a transformative break in 2022 to focus on her well-being, Banks has returned with renewed clarity and drive. This summer, she reignited her love for performing by joining Megan Thee Stallion on a European tour, a journey that reinvigorated her artistry and set the stage for her eagerly anticipated new project, set to drop in 2025.
“Shake It” is more than just a club banger; it’s a celebration of resilience, renewal, and Ms. Banks’ undeniable dominance. With its infectious energy and unapologetic vibe, this track proves one thing: Ms. Banks is back, bolder and better than ever.
