Pop-R&B songstress Charlene Su has finally dropped her debut EP titled onlyfriends, with four songs that promise to be absolute bops.\nAside from subtly and cheekily referencing the popular, albeit raunchy online platform, OnlyFans, onlyfriends came about through collaboration among friends. Looking through the writers, you can see why. \u201cTo me, collaboration is the best part about music,\u201d says Charlene, as she likes to think of songwriting as self-expression through shared human experience.
\n\u201cWe have all felt disappointment and the ache of heartbreak before, be it unrequited feelings for a crush or even within friendships. I think of this EP as my coping mechanism of sorts for that disappointment; it\u2019s really just me whining and trying to get over my feelings in a very melodic, pop way.\u201d
\nCharlene Su\u2019s onlyfriends EP also includes the R&B jam \u201cbitter baby,\u201d whose laid-back beats and tropical-sounding production drip with sensual confidence, and the earlier released tracks \u201ciwas4u\u201d and \u201cilikered.\u201d

The music video for \u201csay it back\u201d will be released on 25th August 2021 together with a live- streamed performance of the EP. The new song off Su\u2019s new EP, features Universal Music Singapore\u2019s up-and-coming singer-songwriter and producer YA\u00d8.\nAbout Charlene Su
\nCharlene has been writing songs and dreaming up bedroom bops since her teen years. With her candy-coated vocals sitting atop a spirited hybrid of modern pop, R&B and lo-fi, she has drawn audiences from all across Asia with her unfiltered, unadulterated charm.
\nWith success in the cards both in a tech start-up career as well as with music, Charlene worked to balance both priorities over the past few years before deciding in 2021 to focus on her efforts on her passion for art.

Her fresh, decidedly distinct, and vibrant pop-princess sound is bound to captivate audiences across the globe.\nAt the end of the day, Charlene hopes to make honest music that both entices and empowers. With lyrics that feel and beats that truly bop, she remains one to watch in this exciting new age of pop music.<\/p>\n
