Rising pop-R&B singer-songwriter ALUS kicks off her new year in exciting fashion as she unveils her new R&B and melodic drill-infused single titled “Money Dance.” The vibrant guitar-driven track produced by Dubai-based beatsmith Shyy Beats is as heavy as they come and it also interpolates the melody from CKay‘s “Love Nwantintin” with a unique twist. ALUS, of course, sounds in her element as she embodies the braggadocious side of her spirit, as she rallies against the idea of men trying to use money to attract women. Musically, the track is driven by Alus’ captivating voice, infectious melodies, and defiant lyrics that champion women as providers for themselves and others. As a natural go-getter, she reminds listeners she has no time for those types of men as she is too busy doing her money dance.
For the accompanying music video, Alus collaborates with Mikey D’Amico (A$AP Ferg, DJ Khaled, Timbaland) to bring the R&Drill track even further to life. Taking inspiration from classic gangster characters like Scarface, Pablo Escobar, El Chapo, and others, Alus embodies the female versions of these outlaws and shows that her gender can also be strong characters in all types of situations.
“Money Dance” is the precursor to her long-awaited and highly anticipated new EP that arrives later in the year.
