Toronto singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer Charlotte Day Wilson returns with her new single “Forever,” featuring generational R&B talent Snoh Aalegra.

“Forever” marks the first new solo music from Day Wilson since the release of her highly praised 2021 debut album, ALPHA, and her first with new label XL Recordings. ALPHA served as a metaphorical coming out for Day Wilson, finding her openly and honestly tapping into her queerness for the first time as a storyteller.

The track is tethered loosely to a warped interpolation of The Foundations’ classic, “Baby, Now That I Found You".

A few months after her album's release, fellow Toronto native Drake immortalised early album favourite “Mountains”, co-written by Babyface, by sampling it in the chart topping radio hit “Fair Trade” featuring Travis Scott.

Day Wilson also gained praise for the supergroup remix of her song “Take Care Of You” featuring Syd, King Princess, Amaarae and Meshell Ndegeocello. Most recently, she joined UK producer SG Lewis and Channel Tres on the disco-infused “Fever Dreamer”.

"Forever" featuring Snoh Aalegra is out now.
