“Daydreaming again” is a step in the right direction for me. It’s a continued evolution of my artistry.

I take my craft very seriously, which is why I not only focus on creating meaningful music but also on being able to perform it. It brings me so much joy to see people in the crowd vibing and having a good time while I’m on stage. Memorable moments are made by performers. Being a student to all the greats that came before me will always come first because there’s so much knowledge to soak up.” -Shann

The song is produced by her best friend, Sunsensei. When listening to the production of the song, it’s easy to see the chemistry between the two. “Sensei is one of my best friends, so our chemistry has never been in question. We’ve been putting together the new direction of my sound for a few years, so I’m grateful to have a talented musician such as him I can trust by my side. He knows what works for me even while miles away. One day in the summer, he sent me the beat for Daydreaming Again, and I immediately fell in love. Over time I played with the melody during car rides to work, wrote some lyrics down, and brought it to Atlanta to refine with him. We cut the very first demo, and the rest is history,” she adds when speaking about how the production of "Daydreaming again" came to be.

In the hook of "Daydreaming again," Shann mentions “Feels that I’m in a cycle.” I was particularly interested in how that fit into the overall context of the song. Shann goes on to further explain. “Daydreaming is something that constantly happens, which is why I reference in the title it happening 'Again.' Just like a cycle of events that are constantly in rotation. The wave of emotions that spiral through you thinking about someone puts you in this revolving state. I wanted to ensure when the hook came in it was something that would be talked about and stuck no repeat in your head.”

Staying on the theme of love, Shann goes on to further explain how "Daydreaming again" will contribute to the musical landscape today. “Living life through the lens of Love is what I naturally embody in my life every day. The way social media is consumed now, you see many topics regarding relationships, and it can be toxic. That’s not cool to me. I choose to operate in love, which is why I only surround myself with people who are on the same wavelength. Everyone deserves kindness. That’s why I want to make it cool again to be a real lover. A real lover is not afraid to express themselves; And it doesn’t have to be romance but in your daily interactions with people you know and strangers alike.”
