Audrey Nuna has signed to Republic Records in advance of her new single “superHuman,” Variety can exclusively reveal.
The singer, who recently broke out as the voice of Mira in “KPop Demon Hunters,” worked with Grammy-winning producer Cirkut on “superHuman,” which releases at midnight ET this Friday. It marks her first release as part of her deal with Republic, which comes following a whirlwind year supporting “KPop Demon Hunters” that culminated in an Oscar win for best original song with Huntr/x’s “Golden” earlier this year.
“I’m honored to work with a partner that believes in investing in the future of music and culture,” says Nuna about signing to Republic.
“SuperHuman” introduces a new era for Nuna, who describes the track as a “portal.” “I wrote this song in a time in my life where a lot was changing very quickly, and I felt more perceived by the world than I ever had before,” she explains. “I wanted to capture that feeling – of redemption, of validation, of the tides finally turning. In the same breath, I wanted to quietly remind myself and others to stay human, stay open, to flow like water through all of the changes and that being more human will always be a superpower if we allow it.”
