Quiet Storm Queen Sade sent her fans into a royal frenzy with reports she is set to drop ‘Lion Heart’ – her first new song in six years – as part of the upcoming ‘Transa‘ compilation album.

Helmed by the AID/HIV relief charity organization Red Hot in support of trans and non-binary awareness, the 65-year-old icon is just one of many big-named music celebrities lending their voices to the 46-track worthy cause.

The latest to grab headlines for contributing is GRAMMY-winning singer-songwriter Sam Smith, who teamed with legendary trans musician Beverly Glenn-Copeland to breathe new life into the fan favorite ‘Ever New’ for the forthcoming LP.

First found on the Glenn-Copeland’s 1986 effort ‘Keyboard Fantasies,’ he and Smith made the song’s 2024 update a reality thanks to production from Mark Yoshizumi and Dust Reid.

“Welcome the spring, the summer rain / Softly turned to sing again / Welcome the bud, the summer blooming flower / Welcome thе child whose hand I hold / Welcome to you both young and old / Wе are ever new, we are ever new,” croons Sam on the touching track.

Ahead of the November 22 arrival of ‘Transa,’ hear the new ‘Ever New’ inside.
