News: Janiq Ignites Shares New Single ‘Cobra’

Making a name for herself with her fourth release of the year, Janiq is back with her latest single ‘Cobra’, a pop-tinged belter that’s crafted for a hot, sweaty club night.

As a subtle guitar line opens the track, ‘Cobra’ soon unveils its lustful true colours, bringing the heat, fire, and finesse which has seen her establish herself as one to watch. Exploding into its chorus, brimming with flair, Janiq reinforces her unmatchable confidence with bold lyricism and a pumping backbeat. Penned about a passionate romance, the single navigates lust and hedonism, giving it all to the rhythm. ‘Cobra’ dances along as a contemporary pop anthem, fuelled by a rich R&B underbelly, giving it a darker, compelling edge, doubling down on her fearless approach to musicmaking.

Janiq comments, “It’s almost dangerous getting wrapped up in someone who has such a magnetic pull on you that time slows down when he touches you, you find yourself saying yes to whatever he suggests. You’re both locked in, dancing around the edges of uncertainty, but if it’s not playful, fiery and intoxicating, then I don’t want it.”

Hailing from Trinidad and Tobago, Janiq is a bold pop icon who moves with a silky pop finesse and cinematic style. Now lighting up London with her electric sound and too-hot-to-handle energy, she has cemented herself as a rising star who commands attention. A former leading lady of London’s West End, she has already captivated audiences with roles in The Lion King and Six The Musical, and now she’s set to do it all over again with her music.
