Tanika Charles – Don’t Like You Anymore (7″) [Record Kicks RK45109]

***PRE-ORDER – Est. 21 March 2025***

Produced by Scott McCannell and mixed by Kelly Finnigan of Monophonics, Record Kicks presents the brand new single from Canadian rising soul star Tanika Charles on a limited edition clear vinyl 45 with both tracks taken from the highly anticipated new album “Reasons To Stay” from the Twice JUNO nominated and two-time Polaris Prize listed artist.

On the A-side “Don’t Like You Anymore” is a mid-tempo gospel funk stormer able to set the dancefloor on fire. With its boom-bap-smacked drums and chunky basslines, it will not be a surprise if rap/hip-hop artists get on it to sample the song. The B-side “Here When You’re Ready” is an equally strong mid-tempo soul number that makes this limited edition 45 vinyl a real double sider.

Tanika has transformed from an emerging solo artist to a commanding performer and bandleader, a staple in the Canadian soul scene. The success of her three studio albums “Soul Run” (2017), “The Gumption” (2019) and “Papillon De Nuit” (2022) propelled her in front of new audiences far and wide, with extensive touring in North America and Europe. Her touring career has also seen her supporting the likes of Estelle, Mayer Hawthorne, Haitus Kayote, Lauryn Hill, Bendouin Soundclash and Macy Gray.
