Miami-based artist Miné‘ s latest single “Crave.” arrives like a breath of fresh air, carrying with it the weight of modern romance’s complexities. The Cornell-educated artist, who seamlessly blends her Nigerian roots with contemporary pop sensibilities, has crafted a valentine that feels less like a Hallmark card and more like a midnight confession.

“Crave.” isn’t just another love song – it’s a commentary on our swipe-right culture, where genuine connection has become as rare as a phone battery lasting through the night. Miné’s delivery captures that elusive space between vulnerability and strength, her vocals dancing through the production with the kind of authenticity that can’t be manufactured in a writing camp.

What sets this track apart is its timing – dropping on Valentine’s Day feels less like a marketing strategy and more like a pointed statement about the holiday’s commercialized promises versus our raw human need for genuine connection. Following her previous releases “TMLA” and “Born, Not Raised,” Miné continues to prove she’s an artist who refuses to be boxed in by genre expectations or cultural boundaries.

The track serves as a perfect introduction to Miné‘s broader artistic vision – one informed by her time between Baltimore, Lagos, and now Miami. It’s this global perspective that allows “Crave.” to feel simultaneously intimate and universal, speaking to a generation tired of surface-level interactions but still hopeful enough to put their hearts on the line.
