Shygirl shares new single ‘f@ke’ featuring Kingdom

Shygirl has shared her new single ‘f@ke’, featuring LA-based artist Kingdom.

The new track blends Shygirl’s ethereal vocals and the sound of the ‘00s, as the rapper and songwriter demands within the lyrics to go the club — before adding that she wants "a fake bitch" and that she also wants to be "fake".

Sharing a snipped from her new track on Instagram, Shygirl's caption adds: "Club Shy incoming 2024". Fans in the replies of her post are saying, "shyy you are the club" and "soooo ready for club shy likeeee".
