88rising has pieced together a music roster led by viral figures like Rich Brian and Joji, and NIKI looks to be the next act to make a notable debut.
The 19-year-old's EP, Zephyr, is due out May 23, and its latest release should give listeners a taste of her talents. The Indonesian artist writes and produces all of her music, and on "Dancing With the Devil" she hits the right balance for a smooth bop that details her affection for a special somebody that she can't get over.
"This song is about when I fall into someone's charm, willingly knowing it's wrong, but they had me going so much I didn't wanna be right," NIKI says of the song. "Sultry summer night shit, can't go wrong.”
"Dancing With the Devil" follows "Vintage," which offers a more upbeat performance. Check out "Dancing With the Devil" and grab the song on iTunes. NIKI and the rest of the 88rising crew will be in Los Angeles Sept. 22 for the inaugural Head in the Clouds Festival; grab tickets here.
