Tei Shi has revealed her upcoming fourth EP, BAD PREMONITION, along with the project’s latest single “¿QUIÉN TE MANDA?” and a string of headlining 2023 tour dates.
The Colombian-Canadian singer-songwriter’s new offering follows her 2020 EP, Die 4 Ur Love, and features production from Tei Shi herself, Chairlift’s Patrick Wimberly, Unknown Mortal Orchestra’s Jacob Portrait, and more. The EP has already been previewed thus far by the Summer 2022 single “GRIP” and what has now been confirmed to be the title track in October.
The latest reveal for BAD PREMONITION comes in the form of the bilingual banger, “¿QUIÉN TE MANDA?,” which roughly translates to the expression, “Who told you to?” Over a prickly yet slick production, Tei Shi delights in taking a former flame to task while regaining her power and independence with lines like, “You put ur hands all over the wheel/ Now I’m taking it back for me/ And I’m blowing right past you.” Stream the new single below.
