Gigi has already caught the attention of Billboard, VIBE, and BET for her breakout Waves Of It EP, and her natural vocal talent continues to shine in live performances and intimate covers like Dru Hill’s “Beauty” and Keke Wyatt’s “Nothing In This World”. Please see assets below. Let me know if you are able to support with coverage around the release and if you would like to hear an advance of the EP.
September 19, 2025 (Los Angeles, CA) — Detroit-born and Atlanta based R&B artist GIGI continues to showcase her emotional depth and vocal power with the release of “Make Up,” the second single from her upcoming debut EP, Between Us (arriving this October via Marki Records/Warner Records).
Where her debut track “LMK” leaned into sensuality and temptation, “Make Up” strips things down to raw vulnerability, capturing the fragile process of rebuilding trust in love. Layered over sleek, modern production with a distinctly 2000s R&B feel, GIGI pleads for forgiveness with tender storytelling and stirring vocals that cut straight to the heart.
“This EP is about the real moments of relationships; the passion, the mistakes, the joy, and the heartbreak. ‘Make Up’ is about admitting when you’ve fallen short and fighting for something you don’t want to lose,” says GIGI.
With her ability to fuse soulful R&B textures with a fresh perspective, the Detroit native is quickly carving out her lane as one of the genre’s most promising new voices. She’s racked up nearly 3 million global streams to date, and has received praise from Billboard, VIBE, and Rated R&B for her music and voice. Between Us will further cement her place as an artist who not only carries the torch of classic R&B but pushes it into a new era.
ABOUT GIGI:
Soulful, sleek, and sensual, GIGI makes affecting anthems that are as stylish as they are self-assured. Since discovering her talent at age 8, the Warner Records songstress has used expressive vocals and lucid songwriting to create theme songs for women who not only know their worth, but feel it. Fusing turn-of-the-century R&B aura with distinctly modern songwriting, she debuts a clear vision on 2025’s Waves of it EP, a reflective set that balances the aftermath of heartache with the triumph of self-knowledge. Music has been the Detroit native’s constant companion over the years. She recalls songs from Bobby Womack and the Four Tops echoing through her childhood home. And performing MJ at her family’s impromptu Thanksgiving talent shows. And the first time, in sixth grade, that a cover earned her 10,000 YouTube views. Over years of going viral by bringing her powerful voice to past hits and refining her songwriting craft in the studio, GIGI gradually cultivated a style that was warm, fearsome, and unfailingly honest, distilling thoughts and sensations through the supple grace of Aaliyah and the self-assuredness of Beyoncé.
Now, with the support of Warner and Veeze’s label partner and manager Terrence "Snake" Hawkins, she aspires for her own original songs to hit listeners the way that the classics imprinted on her. “I'm a music head,” GIGI says, “so I hope someone can tap into each track and that can be the soundtrack they'll remember from some key moment 10 years from now.”
