Yazmin Lacey – Ain’t I Good For You

Yazmin Lacey kicks off 2025 with ‘Ain’t I Good For You’, working alongside heavyweights Eg White, Jonny Lattimer, and Cadenza, she’s crafted something equal parts swagger and soul.

The production strikes a sweet spot between polished and raw, letting Lacey’s vocals do the heavy lifting while R&B grooves and jazz-tinged flourishes provide the perfect backdrop.

What makes this release particularly compelling is how it connects to Lacey’s broader creative community. The artwork emerged from a collaborative session with the 2b or Not 2b Collective, while the visual was developed with not/nowhere, a BIPOC artists’ cooperative.

Lacey has found her footing since her acclaimed 2023 debut ‘Voice Notes’ and her collaboration with Ezra Collective. This single suggests an artist who’s moved past proving herself into simply being herself – cheeky, confident, and utterly unapologetic about it. The track’s playful energy feels earned rather than forced, like someone who’s finally comfortable in their skin making music that reflects that comfort.

There’s something quietly revolutionary about an artist who refuses to dim their light, and ‘Ain’t I Good For You’ positions Lacey as precisely that kind of force. It’s the sound of someone who knows their worth and isn’t afraid to remind you.
