Erica Cody is back with an infectious new cut.

Dublin RnB songstress Erica Cody has recruited Hare Squead’s Lilo Blues for her new anthem ‘Calculated’.

The pop hit features production from Erica and Diffusion Lab, with Lilo chipping in with his trademark smooth bars. Her most confident release to date ‘Calculated’ is infectious, bold and another signpost in her artistic evolution.

This year Erica has been at the forefront of the movement for equality in Ireland. She has used her platform to speak on issues affecting black people across Ireland and raise awareness of the rampant inequality highlighted by the Black Lives Matter protests.

Most recently, Erica contributed to the Irish Women in Harmony collaborative release – a cover of ‘Dreams’ by The Cranberries. It saw 40 of Ireland’s leading female artists join forces to support Safe Ireland in an effort to end domestic abuse and coercive control in Ireland.
