– Queen Ifrica Paints Powerful Portrait of Motherhood With New Single “Mom Like Me”
Queen Ifrica debuts her new single “Mom Like Me” today via Nuh Rush Records, as anticipation builds towards the release of her forthcoming album Breath of Life. Produced by IAmNuhRush,“Mom Like Me” follows the strong international response to her March single “Lanton (Lantern),” which continues to gain traction across radio and streaming platforms.
Since its release, “Lanton” has generated confirmed radio spins across 193 stations in 39 countries, with particularly strong activity in Europe, North America, and the UK reggae radio circuit . The record has received support from multiple UK roots and community stations, reinforcing Queen Ifrica’s continued relevance in curated, message-driven listening spaces.
With “Mom Like Me,” Queen Ifrica shifts the narrative to the territory of family. The track centers on the strength of a mother’s love across scenarios that hold true for mothers in various walks of life. The song’s release aligns with Mother’s Day, but takes the subject to a deeper level with its lyrical imagery rooted in realities faced by many families across geographic, cultural, and economic boundaries.
The single continues the visual theme introduced by “Lanton,” where divine light and guidance frame the record. With “Mom Like Me,” that idea takes a more personal form — a mother holding steady through difficult circumstances, keeping the light on regardless of what comesas she declares “loving my children is all I know to do…”
The release arrives as Queen Ifrica prepares for her first major international show of 2026. Set for May 25th, City Splash Festival in Brixton, London isone of the UK’s leading reggae and Caribbean music events. With an all-star lineup that includes Beres Hammond, Gyptian, and The Congos, the performance further reinforces her strong position within the UK market — a territory that has already shown consistent radio and audience engagement during the current campaign.
“Mom Like Me” is the second of three singles leading into the summer release of her new album, Breath of Life. The title track reunites Queen Ifrica with GRAMMY winning artist/producer, Stephen Marley, who also produced the widely acclaimed track “Four Women” for his project Celebrating Nina- A Reggae Tribute to Nina Simone.
Distributed worldwide by Tuff Gong International, “Mom Like Me” is available now on all major streaming platforms.
