Hailing from London with Bangladeshi origins, the incredible Salique releases a breath of fresh air into the British Asian music scene with his brand new, highly anticipated love song, Yallah Azizi.

Fresh from his worldwide success with debut single Let Me In, which shot to number one on the world iTunes music chart, Salique promises another exciting new release with Yallah Azizi.

Although he is of Bangladeshi origin, Salique’s music has global appeal, as he expertly plays with the boundaries of different genres of music. Not afraid to mix different styles, Yallah Azizi brings a fresh vibe to the music industry. A distinct fusion of R&B, Eastern and Arabic harmonies, Salique displays his velvet vocals and versatility in the catchy new track.

Experimenting with different sounds, music lovers can expect to hear a fantastic amalgamation of flavours – from Urdu to Arabic – all set to an infectious R&B beat. A guaranteed floor filler, Yallah Azizi is an upbeat summer tune, certain to find its way on to everyone’s playlists this season.

The multi-talented singer-songer writer is also a fitness model with a passion for both fashion and music. Salique realised his penchant for music at an early age, and is now pursuing his dream to be a strong and permanent fixture in the music industry.

Speaking about the release of Yallah Aziz, Salique says: “I can’t wait to share Yallah Azizi with my fans – old and new. I was ten when I first realised my passion for music, so to be singing professionally 13 years later is a fantastic experience for me. Growing up as a British Bangaldeshi, I have listened to and been inspired by artists from the East and West. This has encouraged me to make music which combines the best of both worlds, which is what I believe I’ve maintained in Yallah Azizi. The track is a great mix of sounds that highlights the genres I grew up so has great international appeal.”

Salique’s popularity has been immediate since the positive reception of his first single. Discovered and signed by independent UK record company, Black Label Records, the singer has garnered much attention from his peers in the industry. Having already worked with East London music mogul Mumzy Stranger, MOBO award winning producer 2Play, Salique is already becoming widely recognised as “one to watch” in the industry.

Salique has just completed work with renowned producer Vee for his new album, releasing at the end of this year, on which Yallah Azizi is featured.

•Yallah Azizi is available for download on iTunes.
