10 SEPTEMBER 2021 (TORONTO, ON) - Ari Lennox's season begins now. After spending time in the studio with self-proclaimed R&B superteam "The Ocean Boys," featuring legendary producer Jermaine Dupri and supreme songwriting titans Bryan-Michael Cox and Johnta Austin, the amorous voice (Dreamville/Interscope Records/Universal Music Canada, the country’s leading music company) returns with her fresh new single "Pressure." Directed by Chandler Lass, Ari easily glides through the funky production created by Dupri and pays homage to iconic divas from the past including the revered Diana Ross. In addition, Ari applies pressure with her sensual demeanor and touch rather than allow herself to succumb to the grips of love.
