Kenya Vaun has infused the airwaves with a nostalgic charm in her latest release, “Used To,” now available under the banner of 300 Entertainment. The song is a melodic homage to the timeless quality of old-school love, resonating with an audience yearning for enduring connections.

The track’s alluring lyrics, accompanied by an upbeat melody that samples Billy Stewart’s “Sitting in the Park,” unfold as a tender dedication to Vaun’s partner.

Here, Vaun celebrates the rarity of steadfast love in today’s transient world. She elaborates, “‘Used To’ is about someone finally receiving the love that they’ve always wanted, but aren’t used to receiving.” Vaun’s interpretation of ‘old school love’ echoes the idea of unwavering support through life’s ebbs and flows, a concept she feels is fading in contemporary times.

Accompanying the single is a music video that mirrors the feel-good vibe of Amerie’s 2002 hit, “Why Don’t We Fall in Love.” However, Vaun’s visual narrative is set amidst the autumnal hues of a neighborhood, capturing the essence of community, companionship, and joy.

“Used To” is a beautiful successor to Vaun’s 2023 track “Summer,” produced by the illustrious Carvin & Ivan and Ronny “FLIP” Colson. “Summer” has been making significant waves, currently at No. 7 on Billboard’s Adult R&B Airplay chart. Reflecting on “Summer,” Vaun shares how the track symbolizes a serene escape from the mundane or challenging aspects of life, offering listeners a sonic getaway to a place of peace.

Earlier in 2023, Vaun made her debut on 300 Entertainment with “Overrated.” The track delves into the swift nature of modern relationships and the scarcity of unwavering love. Vaun’s personal experiences heavily influence the song’s narrative, as she explores the concept of fleeting connections in the current age.

Kenya Vaun continues to carve her niche in the R&B genre with “Used To,” an ode to the resilience and beauty of love that stands the test of time. Her musical journey remains an exploration of deep emotions and universal experiences, resonating with audiences seeking authenticity and soul in music.
