Acclaimed Canadian R&B Artist Savannah Ré Discusses New ‘Formed’ LP & Being Sampled by Drake on ‘100 Gigs’
Canadian R&B singer-songwriter Savannah Ré speaks with Billboard about her new 'Formed' project, being sampled by Drake and writing for Chris Brown.
In the five years since Opia, her Polaris Music Prize-shortlisted debut studio album, Canadian R&B singer-songwriter Savannah Ré has transitioned out of the major label system into an era of independence heralded by the self-assured melodies of Formed, her new full-length project. “I think I was hypercritical of everything during Opia,” Ré tells Billboard just days after returning from a seven-year anniversary trip to St. Lucia with her husband, who was honored with a parade celebrating his Grammy win. In a wide-ranging conversation with Billboard, Savannah Ré breaks down Formed, reveals her initial reaction to Drake sampling her for 100 Gigs, and details how she’s navigating being an independent artist.
