The song is a clarion call to all the single ladies to unite, and serves as a fiery expression for all women to play by their own rules.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Sian has been making music indepenently since 2012, with her inspirations including pop icons of the past and present, including Michael Jackson, Ariane Grande, and JoJo. It is in RnB however that Sian is definitely making her own mark, and we look forward very much to her upcoming album, which is currently in progress.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Stream and download &#8216;Heat&#8217; <a href=\"https:\/\/ditto.fm\/heat-sian-punnett\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.
