The world has gone through so much in the year of 2020, causing a halt on many fronts of our lives across the globe . While many of us have lost so much, it caused an influx of creative energy for Chic Soul Music label owner, Singer, Songwriter and Producer, Sheree Hicks. She has collaborated with others and had prior releases to top the charts in the first quarter of 2021, but she has also been patient and strategic when it comes to her first music offering to the masses to represent her own imprint that have come to know and appreciate as Chic Soul Music. The leading lady of CSM has yet to fail us on her choices and has never disappointed us to date. She has been presented many amazing tracks from producers locally, as well as all the way to the other side of the world, only to set her sights on a beautiful, soul stirring piece of music that spoke to her immediately from New Jersey’s very own, DJ and producer, Shachon Conway. This is their second go around on a collaborative effort. Shachon also crafted a masterpiece of a remix for Sheree prior to the pandemic called, “Tempted,” causing a frenzy with the DJs and patrons. That was the beginning of more to come between the two creatives.
When presented with the new track, Sheree knew immediately that this was the one! It allowed creativity to flow through her effortlessly. She expressed to Shachon that because of his pristine production, the song literally penned itself. When a collaboration is that effortless, it’s a no brained and great sign to be a hit with their supporters. The newest addition to their catalog is called, “Official.” Already highly anticipated by so many and sure to top the charts in a matter of minutes!

I first heard this self-affirming song on QB Smith’s show a few years ago. And I knew this song was made for me. It’s so close to my heart and dreams. Thank you Diviniti. Thank you Josh. I play this whenever I’m feeling low and uninspired. Music heals! Andile Buka

It would have been nice if there had been an unreleased version that would combine the "Honeycomb Extended Vocal Mix" with the "Honeycomb Reprise Mix" at the end ema_kenlou
