Grammy® winner Andra Day, a multi-platinum chanteuse and Academy Award nominee, unveils her unfiltered truth in her latest single, “Probably,” available now via Warner Records. Zane Lowe, on Apple Music, exclusively premiered the track, amplifying the buzz surrounding Day’s forthcoming third album, Cassandra, slated for a spring release.
Day’s signature full-bodied vocals command attention from the outset, capturing the essence of “Probably” with unwavering intensity. Her voice, a force of nature, effortlessly navigates the emotional nuances of the song, transcending genres as it merges R&B, blues, and pop, solidifying her status as a vocal luminary of her generation.
“The inspiration for it came from the idea that there are three sides to every story: There are two people involved, if we’re looking at it that way. There’s this side, there’s this person’s side, and there’s the truth. I hate hearing women called crazy. Especially by their partners, especially by men on social media, no offense. I really wrote it with a relationship situation in mind—’I loved you, I supported you’—but I wanted it to be funny. I always want to talk about heavy things with a sense of humor. Truthfully, that’s a cultural thing. I really wanted it to be funny because, as Black people, we use humor to survive. I actually think there’s power in being able to turn your pain into humor like that. It helps us to cope and to move on,” Day shares about the song’s origins.
