In my current city, it’s the first day of (digital) school. A new year comes with, in this COVID era, new challenges. But one thing that stays the same, digital school or not, is my love of good music. One of the many folks who’s dropped good music on SOTB.com, Staasia Daniels, is back with one of her first releases since January’s Unheard Volumes.

“Be With You” is, in a word, different.

It isn’t as focused on the relentless pressures that come with wonky relationships. Instead, Daniels dropped an anthem for the folks who don’t want to deal with those relationships. It’s more upbeat and fun than Unheard Volumes, but Staasia’s vocals are no less powerful. Check out the song below and remember to support dope music in all its forms.
