The up-and-coming dance-pop artist INJI drops her sophomore EP WE GOOD via AWAL, inviting us all to take life’s chaos head-on with a wink and a grin. Packed with bangers, this EP serves up a playful reminder to handle life with a little delulu optimism and a whole lot of self-confidence.

The EP’s focus track “SEXY 4EVER” features legendary Nile Rodgers and is INJI's bold response to societal pressures on aging. With Rodgers' legendary influence, the track amplifies her message: like him, she plans to stay sexy and successful, beyond her 70’s.

INJI on the release: “My second EP comes from the most transformative period of my life when I left business school to pursue music. Creating INJI was my way of coping with the anxiety of perfectionism—by making music that embraced positivity and humor instead. We Good is packed with tracks that are perfect for a pre-game, a 7 a.m. boost as you go to work, or going out on a Saturday night. But at its core, it’s about finding lightness in life, replacing anxiety with optimism, and not taking things too seriously, especially during the uncertainty of our 20s.”

WE GOOD TRACKLIST HERE:

1.     NICE TO MEET YA (feat. Flyana Boss)

2.     GIRLZ

3.     PEPSI COLA

4.     SEXY 4EVER (feat. Nile Rodgers)

INJI, a 23-year-old artist and songwriter from Turkey now based in NYC, has made a remarkable transition from being trained in classical and jazz music to dance pop. While studying at The Wharton School of Business, she launched her solo career with the audacious track “GASLIGHT,” which quickly racked up millions of streams and dominated TikTok charts. Her follow-up single, “BELLYDANCING,” has amassed over 56.5 million streams and topped major playlists worldwide, earning more than 300,000 Shazam tags in its first week.
