Her latest project, &#8216;Catch Me&#8217;, fits perfectly with this, with its Bond-theme styling and a glitzy animated music video to match.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kendra Erika&#8217;s latest project. &#8216;License To Thrill&#8217;, sees her take on all the Bond themes, and re-imagine them with a modern twist, in the form of not just an album, but also an immersive stage show, in which she sweeps up her listeners into her world of jazzy interpretations and bold cinematic arrangements. She&#8217;s had a lifelong obsession with Agent 007, so that has certainly helped! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">New single, &#8216;Catch Me&#8217;, is a striking example of what&#8217;s to come, with its Bond film elegance and sound that reminds listeners of the power ballads of &#8216;Goldfinger&#8217;, &#8216;Diamonds Are Forever&#8217;. Produced by Kendra&#8217;s close collaborator, Damon Sharpe, with whom she co-wrote the song, the song&#8217;s bassline leaves us in no doubt of its inspiration, and instantly snaps us up out of our mundane lives to somewhere a bit more intriguing. Speaking of the track, Kendra says, \u201c\u2018Catch Me\u2019 is playful, powerful, and filled with that sense of danger and glamour,\u201d she says. \u201cIt is a song about confidence, attraction, and staying just out of reach\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The music video for &#8216;Catch Me&#8217;, crafted in collaboration with HIP Video Productions, sees an animated Kendra, a bombshell on a mission. Action-packed and multi-faceted, this gem of a clip raises the stakes at every turn, playing out like a feature film, with card games in neon-lit casinos, high-speed motorcycle chases, and battles in Rome, Tokyo, Las Vegas, and finally, in Paris, in front of the Eiffel Tower, no less. She&#8217;s got a view to a kill, and isn&#8217;t afraid to use everything she&#8217;s got to achieve it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check out the music video for &#8216;Catch Me&#8217; below, and find out more about Kendra Erika and her music online on her official <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kendraerika.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">website<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@KendraErika\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">YouTube<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/KendraErikaMusic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/kendraerika\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Twitter<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/kendraerika\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@kendraerika\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">TikTok<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\"><div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_44472\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/916hmOkQ9aE?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;rel=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"Kendra Erika - &quot;Catch Me&quot; (Official Music Video)\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/916hmOkQ9aE\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Having spent the past decade forging her own lane, Kendra Erika&#8217;s sound never fails to entrance her listeners, with its world of intrigue, elegance, and glamour.
