Early this year, NY/NJ based Amrit Dasu a.k.a. Dasu dropped his major label debut single “Dil Kya Kare (Did I Love You?)”which went on to amass over 2 million YT/VEVO views and along the way won him hearts and hordes of fans alike! The Rishi Rich produced track that sampled the eternal `Julie’ classic Dil Kya Kare featured the gorgeous Mallika Sherawat in the music video.
Now, the R&B/Pop sensation unleashes his 2nd single on Universal Music India. The track Frenemies is a straight from the heart RnB / Soul gem with a new school RnB/Pop sound. The song is composed and written by Dasu and Produced by cutting edge producer Senik (NY). With an infectious hook and relatable lyrics, Dasu is in top form showcasing his deft vocals skills over a minimalistic beat.
Says Dasu, “While in a Mumbai hotel I got this thought in my head where I remember how people get so caught up in the limelight and lose themselves in “fame”. When everyone starts becoming your friend for what you do, instead of who you really are. Fake friends who smile in your face but wish to see you fall”.
He continues…..Frenemies is a song about someone who is on top of the world and still feels trapped in a hotel room…could have any girl in the world but can’t find true love…can have all the friends in the world but can’t find friendship, leading him to rebel against everything and everyone.”
Interestingly Frenemies was written in a hotel room in Mumbai while Dasu was here to shoot for the music video of his debut single.
The new single is available worldwide today and is accompanied by a music video shot on the streets of China Town in New York City.
Devraj Sanyal Managing Director and CEO, Universal Music Group, South Asia says “Dasu’s vocal ability and his unique R&B style is what sets him apart as a performer. The response his debut single, the Rishi Rich produced Dil Kya Kare (Did I Love You?), got assured us that we had signed on a genuine talent…a star in the making! Frenemies is his brilliant follow-up…composed and written by him, the track transcends boundaries. It’s very much in line with some of the best International music out there and we are confident that it will be very well received. ”
Frenemies is available across all digital platforms Worldwide exclusively on Universal Music.
