India Shawn’s “Kill Switch” is out now—a bold new single and video via VANTA Music/Disney Music Group.
Genre-defying artist India Shawn returns with her deeply emotional new single “Kill Switch”, now available via VANTA Music/Disney Music Group. Written and produced in collaboration with D’Mile, Livvy Bennett, Varren Wade, and Michael Benjamin Hunter, the track tells a story of self-awareness and emotional restraint.
“‘Kill Switch’ is an unexpected shift, as I move away from the familiar shadows of unreturned love and reclaim the power to decide my own fate,” says India. “It’s about the danger of crossing from friends to lovers and protecting what’s real before it turns messy.”
Shawn’s unmistakable voice glides through a soundscape both rich and minimal, reflecting a maturity in artistry and storytelling. The track dives into the complexities of emotional boundaries and the quiet strength it takes to choose peace over passion.
The music video, directed by Anne-Sophie Bine, is a surreal journey through memory and emotion. Starring India and Luke James, the visual explores the unraveling of a relationship through dreamlike scenes and overlapping timelines, as India navigates a labyrinth of her past lives in search of clarity.
“Kill Switch” is released on VANTA Music, the forward-thinking label helmed by D’Mile, John Kercy, and Natalie Prospere—a collective committed to amplifying culture through bold, creative storytelling.
With this new release, India Shawn reaffirms her position as one of R&B’s most thoughtful and fearless voices.
