Goapele's got a secret and she's ready to share it! The South-African/American singer, songwriter, actress, activist and designer, Goapele, unveiled a sexy new single, "$ecret," and the tracklist for her forthcoming EP, Dreamseekerout May 19th via EMPIRE / SKYBLAZE. Pre-order Dreamseeker here.

Dreamseeker includes the seductive single, “$ecret” with a nod to Aaliyah’s “Are You That Somebody,” as well as an appearance from BJ The Chicago Kid on the standout track, “Stay." Produced by CrakWav (Bedrock, A&E), "$ecret" is a bedroom banger that boldly explores Goapele's sultry and sensual side.

Following up 2014’s Strong As GlassDreamseeker addresses self-love, social consciousness, sensuality and motherhood. The EP’s first single, “Power,” premiered on Vibe.com and delivers a feel-good message about unconditional love.

Goapele is currently on her Dreamseeker Tour, which kicked off in April and is closing in her hometown, Oakland, CA 5/18-5/21.

Diversity has defined Goapele since the start of her career in 2001. Her influence and impact can be felt throughout R&B, soul, and hip-hop. 2001’s Closer yielded the iconic anthem “Closer.” To date, it has impressively racked up over 6 million Spotify streams and has been sampled by everyone from Drake to YG. In between touring the world, she has released four full-length albums and collaborated with a diverse array of heavy hitters such as Snoop DoggE-40Eric BenétSoulive and Jeff Bhasker.

Outside of music, Goapele is committed to activism and raising awareness. She is an active participant in the AIDS Healthcare Foundation, and recently starred in a short film entitled Where Is Beauty, which addresses the pressures young women have with social media and beauty standards.
