Queen Naija has unveiled her latest EP, After the Butterflies, released through Capitol Records. This 10-track project is positioned as an interim release before the arrival of her sophomore album.

Featuring collaborations with Monica, Eric Bellinger, and Ella Mai, the EP includes previously released tracks such as “Words of Affirmation” and “No Fake Love,” featuring YoungBoy Never Broke Again.

In the collaboration “One of Them Days” with Monica, the singers emphasize self-care as a crucial element in overcoming relationship challenges. The track draws parallels to Monica’s earlier hit “Don’t Take It Personal (Just One of Dem Days).”

Other songs on the EP include “Taboo,” where Bellinger and Queen Naija explore fantasies about their partners, and “All or Nothing,” where she and Ella Mai express frustration with indecisive men.
