Here’s another stocking stuffer that you’ll want to get before Christmas. FIYA is a Philadelphia native R&B/pop singer whose debut single “Wishing You Home”, is on its way to the top of the charts. “Wishing You Home” is a tender, heart-wrenching Christmas song that embraces the sadness of being separated from a loved one during the holiday seasons. “Wishing You Home” conveys a personal connection for FIYA and shares with the many family members of the over 160,000 troops that have fought for our country in this current war.
FIYA is armed with nearly two million YouTube hits, 22,000 subscribers, a blazing hot production team and an energetic sound that channels the creative genius of everyone from Chaka Khan to Freddie Mercury to Maroon 5, FIYA is on fire and ready to put her newfound fame to good use; she’s done just that!
Her debut single, “Wishing You Home” (Joe Tann), is a Christmas song you’ll want to add to your holiday collection. “When I heard it, I loved the song because it’s a classic-sounding Christmas song. You could listen to it every year and not get tired of it. There are lots of Christmas songs that are more cheery, but I wanted something more reflective.”
FIYA acknowledges that the song instantly conjures up images of families longing for the return of a loved one serving in the military so she not only shot a video that pays homage to those families, she also partnered with Operation Homefront (an organization that aids military families) and offered to give the group a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the single.
At the end of the day, FIYA says she wants to stay on her chosen path and be a light of inspiration to others. “I want to put out a solid pop/R&B album and have a long-lasting career,” she lends. “I want to inspire people, be someone that young girls can actually look up to, someone that their parents won’t mind them listening to. That’s important to me. That’s what I really want to do.”
FIYA also launched two YouTube channels -- SafiSings and Br0nzeQt -- a tutorial for all things hair, makeup and fashion. Within months, she had tens of thousands of hits and thousands of subscribers.
To purchase the download for only $.99, go to FIYA’s website, Amazon MP3 download, or iTunes. (available also in Espanol) You’ll want to listen to this one, over and over again.
