French‑Caribbean bassist, singer and producer Adi Oasis follows the 180‑million‑stream triumph of her album Lotus Glow, home to the Diamond‑certified hit “Le Départ” and fuel for a globe‑spanning tour, with a brand new single, “Cheirinho”.
Released August 1, 2025, “Cheirinho” opens a new chapter for Adi. The song sprang to life inside Rio de Janeiro’s famed modernist retreat Chez Georges, where Adi spent a month writing, recording and chasing tropical sunsets.
During one serendipitous afternoon, Rio duo YOÙN, Shuna and GP, known for blending jazz, blues and Brazilian pop, walked in carrying a sun‑bleached guitar riff. Minutes later, the lobby morphed into a studio as Adi’s daughter toddled between cables and couch cushions. Lyrics spilled out half in English, half in Portuguese, celebrating the warm, familiar perfume a parent inhales while holding their child close; that “little scent” became “Cheirinho,” a lullaby of Brooklyn bass, Brazilian swing and horns sourced from both hemispheres.
Back in Brooklyn, she layered crisp East‑Coast drum snap over YOÙN’s sun‑drenched guitars, forging what she calls “a passport‑stamped handshake between two cities that live for rhythm.” YOÙN echo the sentiment: “Working with Adi was instant groove chemistry. ‘Cheirinho’ proves music ignores borders.”
The single signals the next phase of an artist who made headlines for turning a lost‑luggage disaster into a viral flex, walking onstage in a hotel bathrobe, bass in hand, towel turban ablaze and who continues to demand visibility for artist‑parents.
A freshly re‑pressed, previously sold‑out Lotus Glow vinyl coincides with Adi’s Summer 2025 European tour, where Brooklyn inspiration, Brazilian swing and guitar hooks runs collide in kaleidoscopic color.
