DRIIA makes her major label debut on Ministry of Sound with the captivating new single 'My Lover’s Mind'.
“My Lover’s Mind marks the start of a new era for me, one that focuses on nostalgic sounds of the 90s/00s.” says DRIIA “It explores the inner narrative of doubt in a relationship, and how when you return to something toxic it can feel like you’re letting yourself down. I wrote it for anyone who finds themselves in consuming relationships stuck in a cycle. I feel the record prompts us to question if we truly deserve this, or whether we should move on entirely and find peace on our own terms.”
With her recent signing to Ministry of Sound in late 2023, DRIIA is already being hailed as one of the most promising talents by the likes of Danny Howard who tipped her as one of his Future Stars on BBC Radio 1 this year. Already the cause of much excitement throughout the scene, her journey is just beginning.

Her distinct style has attracted the attention of prominent artists and songwriters, leading her to work with the likes of Jax Jones, Rudimental, Interplanetary Criminal, LF SYSTEM and more. In turn, DRIIA co-wrote Rudimental’s recent hit ‘Green & Gold’ featuring Charlotte Plank, which catapulted onto BBC Radio 1’s A List and Capital Playlist, storming into the OCC within its first week.
The classically trained London based artist and producer doesn’t just blend genres; she reshapes them with a contemporary flair that’s impossible to ignore. Drawing from Jungle, Breaks, and Trip-Hop, she crafts a sound that strikes a balance between innovation and nostalgia.
