FALLING INTO PLACE
PRESAVE HERE
[Feb 28, 2025, Toronto, ON] – Canadian R&B star Aqyila continues her unstoppable 2025 with the release of her latest track, “Wolf,” which is accompanied by a stunning, stylized music video, out today from Sony Music Entertainment Canada. She has also announced the release of her debut album, Falling Into Place, out March 28. [Listen to the track here. Watch the video here. Presave the album here.]
Written by Aqyila, Mike Sonier (Noah Cyrus, Maggie Rogers, The Weeknd, Julia Michaels), and Soaky Siren (Tiesto, Jason Derulo, Pitbull, J.Balvin, Maroon 5, Tinashe), and produced by Mike Sonier, “Wolf” is an upbeat pop anthem from Canada’s reigning R&B princess. Following a series of confident releases, the track reinforces Aqyila’s unyielding sense of self and her refusal to settle. It’s a bold response to a man who has “cried wolf” one too many times—”you and truth are incompatible,” she sings, making it clear she’s had enough.
“My earlier releases from this album were all about feeling confident, knowing who I am, and staying grounded. This track is a little bolder, a bit playful, but also fearless,” says Aqyila. “2025? Let’s talk boundaries,” she adds with a laugh.
Falling Into Place represents a significant milestone for Aqyila. “There’s no such thing as overnight success,” she reflects. “This debut album is the culmination of years of hard work, growth, and learning. All the pieces finally feel like they’re coming together, and I can’t wait to share it with the world.”
In 2024, Aqyila earned a JUNO Award for ‘Traditional R&B/Soul Recording of the Year’ for her song “Hello”; achieved viral success with “Bloom”; and released “Most Wanted,” which included collaborations with Nike and Tribal Carnival. She also presented at the Legacy Awards, performed both in Canada and abroad—including a set at UK singer Mahalia’s iconic “Mahalia Presents” series at the Jazz Café in Camden, London—and headlined her first sold-out show in her hometown of Toronto.
The momentum has only grown in 2025. Aqyila is currently on a North American tour supporting Pink Sweat$ and has earned two JUNO nominations: ‘Contemporary R&B Recording of the Year’ for “Bloom” and ‘Traditional R&B/Soul Recording of the Year’ for “Limbo.” She will also take the stage as a featured performer at this year’s JUNO Awards broadcast on March 30, airing on CBC.
Aqyila’s songwriting, lyricism, and performances continue to reach new heights—and she’s just getting started.
