Ebony Riley Returns With Smoldering Track “Only You”
Los Angeles, CA) R&B starlet Ebony Riley (Riley Montana, Inc./Interscope Records) makes her long-awaited return with her sultry new track, “Only You.” A slow-burner laced with hypnotic production, the record reveals the edgier, more visceral side of Riley as she surrenders to a love too powerful to contain. “Only You” is produced by CasperDoItAgain (Jeezy/TLC), Jitta On The Track and Fu and is executive produced by Larrance “Rance” Dopson of 1500 or Nothin’.
Her voice brims with intensity, reaching a fever pitch as her infatuation becomes intoxicating and uncontrollable. “Bought the fire, my body never had the flame,” she sings, embodying the dangerous allure of desire that’s impossible to tame.
In 2024, Riley delivered a string of standout singles, from the breezy summer anthem “Where They At” (produced by Tommy Brown and Leather Jackettt) to the contemplative “Mirrors,” a self-affirming reflection on what she deserves in life.
Her rise began in 2023 with her self-titled debut EP, a critically acclaimed project that vaulted Riley onto R&B’s main stage. The project not only earned her praise from Billboard, Okayplayer, and NYLON—as well as a coveted spot on Complex’s “R&B Artists to Watch” list—but also led to major live moments, including a BET Awards performance and opening slots for Jazmine Sullivan and Coco Jones.
Beyond the mic, Riley has proven herself a force in fashion, gracing runways and campaigns for the likes of Beyoncé’s Renaissance album, Marc Jacobs, Oscar de la Renta, and Bottega Veneta.
With “Only You,” Ebony Riley reaffirms her place as one of R&B’s most captivating rising voices—daring, sultry, and unafraid to bare the heat of her burning love.
