Ayanis Unveils Debut EP, DIRECTION

Island Prolific/Atlantic Records recording artist, Ayanis, has officially unveiled her debut EP, DIRECTION. Her EP is now available at all DSPs and streaming services. Download/stream here.

The arrival of DIRECTION is also accompanied by the official companion visual for her latest release, "Wait A Minute" which includes a special guest appearance from Mack Wilds. The video was exclusively premiered today via Essence.

Her latest visual follows the previously released "Awh Yeh" and "F.I.Y.T. (f Is You Thinking)." The latter was exclusively premiered via VIBE. They went on to hail Ayanis as she "managed to get her message across with a combination of sweet and sultry vocals alongside a trap beat."

Ayanis has just recently wrapped the "Access Granted: HBCU Tour" presented by Atlantic Records and Live Nation Urban. She joined labelmates Bri Steves, RecoHavoc and K'ron while visiting select Historically Black Colleges and Universities along the east coast. BET helped celebrate the month-long trek and highlighted the rising R&B singer with an exclusive tour diary available for viewing here.

The Texas born and Atlanta raised singer and dancer began singing in church choirs and did youth beauty pageants before ultimately deciding at a young age that she wanted to be a professional entertainer. She went on to enroll at Georgia State University majoring in Public Relations and Journalism while still working towards her dreams of being an artist. Ayanis eventually went on to catch the ears of industry notables and later inked her deal with Island Prolific/Atlantic Records.
