Singer/songwriter Shantel May, the rising R&B sensation hailing from the city of Toronto, marks her official entry into the US music scene with the release of her MNRK Music Group debut single, “Love It Here.” Featuring New York rapper Lola Brooke and produced by SK & K Major, the track is an enchanting blend of fierce, fun, confidence, and romantic vibes, encapsulating Shantel May‘s unique perspective on life and love. The forthcoming single showcases her vocal prowess and pays homage to The Isley Brothers‘ classic “Footsteps In The Dark,” adding a nostalgic yet contemporary touch to the track.
As she reflects on recording the single, Shantel states, “I immediately fell in love with the Isley sample & knew it would be dope. The topic was bang on for me at the time so it was easy to connect/have fun wit. I think the girls gon like this one. It feels familiar but also new. Which is something I think I identify with a lot as an R&B artist, who mostly listens to throwbacks. This is my first female feature & Lola’s vibe fits perfectly.”

“Love It Here” Lyrics:
Love it here
Love it
He love it when I’m here
Love it, he love it when I’m
So now you know
So now
Love it here
you love it, love it
Love it when you here
Love it, love it when you
He gon’ come when I call, bet he be right back home
Can’t stay mad for too long, ‘cause I got what he want
He gon’ text my phone when he ready, he might talk that sh- and go crazy
Toxic tendencies it’s complicated, don’t get it twisted that’s my baby
Don’t think for once, I don’t cross his mind
That’s that bad bi- magic, hard to breathe
without it
It be a cold night to see him break this habit
Our Love stories sure, but it’s tragic
But he fell in love with the madness
He ain’t goin’ nowhere
Promise he loves it here
My baby ain’t goin’ nowhere, I swear
Promise that he loves it here, still here
He could say nothin’, he gon’ say he gon’ leave he ain’t budgin’
My try but he out of his mind, to him I’m not a dime of a dozen , its no discussion
It may be like that, got that good make his a- want to spin back
Yeah his energy I match that, you hate it’s hard to let me go
Don’t think for once, I don’t cross his mind
That’s that bad bi- magic, hard to breathe without it
It be a cold night to see him break this habit
Our Love stories sure, but it’s tragic
But he fell in love with the madness
He ain’t goin’ nowhere
Promise he loves it here
My baby ain’t goin’ nowhere, I swear
Promise that he loves it here, still here
It shouldn’t be that hard to keep them out our business (Nah)
And since you love it here so much, you should lick what’s in it (Hey, baby)
Taste like strawberries, sugar mixing in wit’ lemons (Uh huh)
Come to the studio, spit in it for 30 minutes (Tssss)
Caught a knockout wit’ this TKO, said my neck so reckless that it need to be froze (Ahhhh)
Keepin’ it private, like the minor things I’m keeping ya soul (Tssss)
No drivin’ dirty on this uss, a ni- need to be told (Uh huh)
Don’t be mad at me I just keep it gangsta (Gangsta)
Strategize my moves it make me feel safer (Safer)
I gotta reroute it, when you crashin’ out for gator (Crashin’ out for gang)
Smack anybody, you gon’ always do me that favor (Uhhh)
He ain’t goin’ nowhere
Promise he loves it here
My baby ain’t goin’ nowhere, I swear
Promise that he loves it here, still here
He love it, love it
Love it, when he here
He Love it, he love it
Said he love it, love it love it when you
So now you know, so now you know
You know, he love it when he here
