Producer, performer, and Jersey Club royalty UNIIQU3 shares her latest single “Price Going Up,” a collaboration with DJ duo Black Caviar. Bombastic and dynamic, “Price Going Up” is an energetic dance-pop track laced with influences of hip-hop and EDM. “Price Going Up” is the first single off of UNIIQU3's upcoming EP with Black Caviar, Ramen Noodles (dropping March 2024). 

Opening with UNIIQU3's distinct vocals and a captivating, descending bass, “Price Going Up” is addictive from the onset. Sirens blare as the frenetic percussion builds, signaling that it's time to get out on the floor and dance. UNIIQU3 revels in boisterous optimism as she raps “My price going up / all the way up / and my whole crew in the cut.” 

UNIIQU3 says this of the new track: 

"I've always have fun making music with Black Caviar. The production is filled with so much energy. When I collaborated with them for U NASTY I knew that wasn't the last time we'd work together. My favorite thing about “Price Going Up” is that it's really a song about manifesting. It's something I do often, it's something I was doing heavily when recording this. Just imagining myself in a new elevated place in life mentally, physically and of course financially! Yesterday's Price ain't today's price and that's real life for me.This song is for my manifestors, for the shot callers and people who don't plan on dimming their light to make others comfortable.” 

2023 was a juggernaut year for UNIIQU3, including a slew of single releases like "Shake The Room" with Bronx Dominican duo Dos Flakos, "Body Moves" (a collaboration with Glitch Mob and Samurai Breaks), and UNIIQU3's official remix of Crystal Waters' 1994 hit single "100% Pure Love" via Island/UMe.

The remix celebrates the upcoming 30th anniversary of the track's release, and the song's resurgent popularity following it being featured in RuPaul's Drag Race Season 13 in a lip sync-off between Denali and Kahmora. This collaboration between UNIIQU3 and Crystal Waters also highlights the impact of two New Jersey natives and Black women on dance music, with UNIIQU3 distilling all of the original track's elements that made it a '90s dancefloor anthem, while adding a Jersey Club twist.

 UNIIQU3 also shared the single and video “Jersey Club Movie”. Sexy, playful, and addictive, “Jersey Club Movie” allows UNIIQU3 to flex her skills as both a producer and a performer. Flirty, flippant lyrics are expertly paired with a quick, fiery beat and bouncing bass loaded with perfectly timed drops, melding to form an undeniably danceable bop. 

UNIIQU3 adds about the "Jersey Club Movie" accompanying music video:

"I had a blast making this video. I've been more intentional about letting my fans not only hear and feel the music but see the vision I had when creating it. I got inspiration from tv shows like Sister, SIster and Family Matters, where I got the idea of having my love interest going from geek to GQ lol. I represent the ladies when it comes to Club Music so I wanted this video to showcase all different types of beauty and bossiness. I also really stepped back into dancing for this video as well and collaborated with Solundy ( Chloe Bailey, Cardi B ) because what is 'Jersey Club Movie' without a dance challenge!"
