After taking a short break from quarantine, pop superstar Sam Smith returned with new music on Thursday (July 30).
“My Oasis” with Nigerian superstar Burna Boy is out now. “You play with my emotions / I’m flowing like the ocean / I pray for your devotion / Because there is nothing I can do when it comes to you,” Smith sings in the chorus.
“This song has been a beautiful release of emotion for me during this time,” Smith said in a press release. “I have been a Burna Boy fan for years and I am very happy to have a song with him.”
Smith wrote the hypnotic track with Jimmy Napes and Burna Boy.
“My Oasis” comes after Smith’s decision in March to postpone and rename his third studio album. Originally titled Die for and slated for a release on May 1, the singer revealed in an Instagram post that the timing and title of the album were not “feeling right” for them, but promised fans that “I’m still going to get some new music out over the next few months. “
