INTRODUCING…MELISSA STEEL

DEBUT SINGLE ‘KISSES FOR BREAKFAST FT. POPCAAN’ OUT 14 JULY

Atlantic Records is proud to introduce new singing sensation, Melissa Steel. The 20-year-old Bradford native will release her debut single ‘Kisses For Breakfast’ featuring Popcaan which is Mista Jam’s ‘Jam Hot’ record this week, on 14 July.

Produced by upcoming UK talent, Wunda, the single boasts dancehall influences with its breezy melodies flowing underneath Melissa’s effortless vocals. Filmed in Jamaica, she speaks about how the location was the best match for the video, “The song has a summer, island feel to it which is pretty much why we envisioned Jamaica as the perfect place to shoot the video. I literally had the time of my life shooting it. I had a blast!”

Dancehall superstar Popcaan, who has previously worked with the likes of Snoop Dogg and Drake, lends his unique freestyle rhymes and beats to the track. On working with him, Melissa says, “Popcaan is also a really cool and talented artist. It was a pleasure to work alongside him on the song.”

Currently in the midst of writing and recording her debut album, the starlet is working with hot producers such as Kz (Wretch 32, Jacob Banks) Bless Beats and Jamaica’s finest, Baby G. Set for big things, Melissa is also currently featured on ‘Way We Are’ by dance act Kove.
