Since the debut of her acclaimed 2023 self-titled EP, ebony, Detroit native Ebony Riley has steadily become a force in both R&B and fashion.

At the same time, Riley has proven her star power in the fashion world, fronting major campaigns for Beyoncé’s Renaissance album, Marc Jacobs, Oscar de la Renta, and Bottega Veneta, among others.

Now, Riley returns with her sultry new single “Only You,” a slow-burning anthem that reaffirms why she is one of R&B’s most captivating rising voices.
