Shauna Shadae Ignites with ‘Light Up My Fire’, Teaming Up with Nigerian Breakout Star Raybekah
When Jamaican-born singer Shauna Shadae and Nigerian breakout star Raybekah link up, it’s more than just a collaboration — it’s a cultural reset.
Light Up My Fire is the sultry, summer-ready anthem we didn’t know we needed, laced with Afro-infused rhythms, Dancehall groove, and undeniable chemistry between two artists on a global rise. Produced by Nigerian heavyweight Blaq Jerzee — known for his work with Wizkid, Tiwa Savage, and more — the track marks a confident reintroduction to Shauna’s evolving sound: bold, melodic, and genre-defying.
Shauna Shadae says, “This return means everything to me. I stepped away to refocus and realign… now I’m back and creating music that feels real, free, and fearless. ‘Light Up My Fire’ is the perfect reintroduction, and teaming up with Raybekah and Blaq Jerzee brought a whole new energy to it.”

Co-written by KLEM and mixed by Victizzle Music at VixMix Studios, the single blends rhythmic Afro beats with Shauna’s signature smooth, sultry vocals — the kind that stick with you. It’s not their first rodeo either. After the success of Lemon & Ice, Shauna and Raybekah reunite to turn up the heat even higher, and it shows.
Whether you’re rooted in Dancehall or lean into Afrobeats, Light Up My Fire strikes the perfect balance. It’s a vibe-heavy, feel-good anthem that celebrates cultural unity while serving infectious replay value. From the moment the beat drops, it’s clear this is a track built for summer playlists, sunset sets, and speakers turned all the way up.
We first met Shauna Shadae back in 2017 on the Mi Like remix alongside SNE and Ms Banks. Since then, she’s been steadily carving out her space with a sound that’s fiercely her own — Caribbean at the core, but effortlessly weaving in elements of R&B, soul, and global influences. With this release, she’s not just stepping back in — she’s making it clear: she’s here to dominate.
