East London/Essex artist Leonie Sherif crafts an electrifying blend of alternative and commercial electro RnB, shaped by ’90s icons like Mariah Carey and innovative producers such as Timbaland. Since teaching herself music production in 2016, she’s evolved from her melancholic 2018 debut EP NOCTURNAL WAVE into a multifaceted creator. Beyond producing for emerging artists since 2020, she’s expanded into entrepreneurship with her fragrance line, Sense’N’ By Sherif. Her sound combines sultry RnB with ethereal vocals and dynamic production, creating an atmospheric yet accessible style.
“Twilight” is a captivating Afro-pop gem that masterfully blends mystery with sass. The track opens with enigmatic synths that establish a stunning atmosphere before elegantly transitioning into a more confident, assertive tone while maintaining its mysterious undercurrent. The intensification of atmospheric elements throughout the song creates moments of pure musical magic.

Thematically, “Twilight” by Leonie Sherif explores escapism and romance through a dreamy, futuristic lens. The lyrics paint vivid pictures of lovers transcending ordinary reality to find their own paradise, whether in distant galaxies or their private universe. References to Bonnie and Clyde (“You gotta be my Clyde”) add a touch of rebellious romance while recurring mentions of “Twilight” and “high life” emphasize the intoxicating nature of the deep connection.
The production perfectly matches the song’s themes of weightlessness and euphoria, creating a sonic space where reality’s boundaries blur and love knows no limits. It’s a sophisticated piece of pop craftsmanship that works equally well as a romantic slow-burn or a stylish dance track, demonstrating Sherif’s ability to create music that’s both artistically innovative and immediately engaging.
