Tafari Anthony Releases New Song “Centerfold”
- Toronto-based singer-songwriter Tafari Anthony has unveiled a new song “Centerfold”.
The track follows up 2019's single “My Favourite Records”. It was written by OBLVYN, Brandon Unis, Kelly Alaina and Tafari Anthony.
The track blends '80s & '90s vibe sound like R&B, pop, and soul. “I'm a pretty calm guy, but when I get to my breaking point, it's hard to hold my tongue," Tafari Anthony shares. "This song was written from sheer frustration of trying to let him down gently and realizing that he just refused to understand."
He debuted with his first EP “Die for You” in 2016. Followed by, the sophomore EP “Remember When” was released in 2017.
He was nominated for a Toronto Independent Music Award, received regular airplay on CBC Radio, with one of his singles being named one of BC’s Most Influential Songs of 2016.
His music often details love, relationships, life’s hardships and finding self identity and worth in a world where most people feel they need to blend in to be happy. He said, “I’m not afraid to write about those dark moments and truths that may be hard to hear. I would hope that my music would inspire someone to be less afraid of being themselves. Be less afraid of offending people by expressing how you truly feel. And to be less afraid of wanting the things you desire and deserve”. - source : PAPER Magazine
