#NewMusic: Y’Anna Crawley Releases Vulnerable ‘This Is Me’ EP

Soulful songstress and Season II Winner of BET’s Sunday Best Y’Anna Crawley has released her highly-anticipated This Is Me EP under her independent label Sassy Soulstress Music.

The D.C. native’s This Is Me project has arrived during a time where grace, strength, patience and more are needed in the world during a nation-wide pandemic. The EP has Crawley reflecting on the trying year and preparing for a new one. The six-track EP is Crawley’s latest and most vulnerable body of work to date.

“This Is Me is authentically Me,” Crawley said on the project. “I wanted to sing my heart’s position without constraint. It’s been a while since I released a body of work and I wanted to make sure I embodied the essence of me. Every song has a specialty to it.”

“This Is Me” EP Track List:

  1. This Is Me (Intro)
  2. Open My Heart
  3. Made It
  4. Pieces of Me
  5. So Good
  6. Reasons

“Just give me 24 minutes of your time,” Crawley continues. “Sit with the music and allow these songs to play as I tell a story through melodies and lyrics.”
