R&B’s New Queen? Honey Bxby Has Entered the Chat
Honey Bxby is a drink of water in the vast desert of today’s musical landscape. She delivers a bold, fearless take on R&B—unapologetic and unfiltered, with a presence that knows no limits.
Honey’s raw, authentic sound began taking shape early in her life. Immersed in the emotionally rich music of artists like Kehlani and Drake, she drew inspiration from their vulnerability and storytelling. With the guidance of her father—a music producer—she sharpened her songwriting skills during intimate, collaborative studio sessions. Starting out by performing for friends and posting covers online, Honey Bxby began building her fanbase from the ground up.
Her breakout moment came in 2023 with the viral hit “Touchin’,” a clever reimagining of Busta Rhymes’ 1990s classic “Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Could See.” The track caught fire, earning praise from music legends like Mary J. Blige and even inspiring an official remix from Busta himself. Riding that wave of momentum, Honey released her debut project, joined Sexyy Red and Flyana Boss on tour, and lit up high-profile stages including HOT 97 Summer Jam, Netflix’s Rhythm + Flow, and the BET Soul Train Awards. Now entering a powerful new chapter in her artistry, Honey reflects, “I feel more empowered, more unapologetic, and finally put myself first, in the best way.”
She’s laying the foundation for her upcoming album “Raw Honey” with the sultry new single “3AM,” a late-night anthem that finds her teaming up with rising star Toosi. The chemistry between them is electric, creating a track that feels both intimate and bold. Honey’s soft yet fierce voice commands every line. A standout lyric cuts straight to the heart: “3AM, you know I’m waiting for you.” A line full of longing, power, and quiet intensity.
Sonically, “3AM” is a late-night confession layered in velvet. The smooth, seductive beat blends effortlessly with her lush vocals, creating a soundscape that feels like a private conversation between hearts. With every note, she continues carving her lane in R&B: emotionally raw, sonically rich, and completely her own.
Her highly anticipated debut album “Raw Honey” is set to drop on May 30 via Rebirth Entertainment / Warner Records. With everything from sweet ballads to dance-floor bangers, the project promises something for every listener.
