Essex singer-songwriter IMONI continues her string of dark R&B musical releases with her latest single titled “Can’t Touch This”. The track is a play on the MC Hammer classic song of the same name, and sees her embodying the spirit of a woman who knows what she wants and nobody can take away her authority. The production by Sonny Neale is moody, and haunting while her seductive melodic runs hit the mark as she vividly details her wants, reminding listeners that consent and boundaries will not be crossed which is expressed with lines like “Cos your best idea is putting your name on mine/Tryna take that ownership/I don’t really owe you shit/Ain’t coming cheap like some buy one get one”
The self-directed visual taps into her unique style that showcases her laidback style and cinematic approach to visualizing music. The use of dark and eye-popping lighting is engaging and the performance shots are lively as well.
“Can’t Touch This” is the second track to drop from her debut EP with producer Sonny Neale.
