Qendresa Turns Up the Heat On ‘Besitos / Gave Myself 2 U’

London artist returns with a sultry AA-side and announces a six-date North American tour.

North West London singer, songwriter, DJ and producer Qendresa returns with new AA-side ‘Besitos / Gave Myself 2 U’, pairing reggaeton-leaning rhythms with the hazy intimacy that has become central to her sound.

‘Besitos’ arrives with a seductive visual directed by Yussef Haridy, moving between candlelit interiors, moonlit scenes and shimmering coastal imagery as Qendresa channels the push and pull of desire for a long-distance lover. She describes the two tracks as “one soundtrack for chasing mezcal infused sunsets and another for the heart aching drive home when the parties over.”

The release follows Qendresa’s appearance on Drake’s latest album 'HABIBTI', where she features on ‘Slap The City’, alongside additional vocals on ‘Gen 5’, ‘Fortworth’ and ‘Stuck’.

Earlier this year, Qendresa released the AA-side ‘Rain In July / Be The One’, two tracks that explored longing and vulnerability through smoky, groove-led production.

She has also announced a six-date North American tour for November, with stops in Atlanta, Chicago, Toronto, New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco.
