Tokimonsta VanJess Say Yes New RnB, New Soul Music

Artist, producer and labelhead, TOKiMONSTA, and R&B duo, VanJess, have teamed up on a remake of  the infamous Neo-Soul track ‘Say Yes‘. The single is a rework of the 2002 classic originally by Floetry.

TOKiMONSTA reinvigorates the classic slow jam as an up-tempo, polished dance record with the special duo, VanJess, on vocals. Originally, VanJess rose to YouTube fame for their incredibly catchy covers of R&B and Hip Hop favourites. So they are in their elements here.‘Say Yes‘ not only pushes TOKiMONSTA’s boundaries as a producer, but further showcases the unique adaptability in her sound that has cemented her role as one of the industry’s most respected producers.

Speaking on her rework, TOKiMONSTA adds, “The original ‘Say Yes’ was a song that encompassed the deeper meanings of openness and love. Though the pandemic has been challenging, I felt inspired to tap into that introspection and reinterpret this song with the help of the incredible VanJess. It’s my first real dance record and I’m excited to share it with the world.” 

VanJess also added, “We’ve missed doing covers and getting to collaborate on one with toki was really exciting because she created such a unique spin on it that’s true to her artistry.”

From humble beginnings in the LA underground scene, TOKiMONSTA has produced hits across all genres. Ranging from deep house to electro-funk, her ear for talent and collaboration is well-respected. Having worked early on with such critical darlings as EARTHGANG, Tinashe, Anderson .Paak, Jean Deaux to name a few. ‘Say Yes‘, whilst being a cover, is yet another example of her musical range and talent.
