The 20-year-old musician, who has built a following of more than one million users on TikTok, is scheduled to release the six-track EP on 10 July 2026.
According to Yandani, ‘Touch’ explores the emotional intensity of being deeply attracted to someone despite recognising the complications within the relationship.
“‘Touch’ is about being so in love with someone to the point where you lose control over your own life,” he said.
“Even though the person seems to be playing games with your feelings, their beauty and presence are so powerful that you are willing to drop everything just to be near them.”
The song combines pop and R&B influences and was co-written with British songwriter and producer Sacha Skarbek and songwriter Stephen Barnes. Skarbek is known for his work on songs including You’re Beautiful and Goodbye My Lover by James Blunt, as well as Wrecking Ball by Miley Cyrus.
Reflecting on the songwriting process, Yandani said the collaboration focused on creating an upbeat and enjoyable track.
“It was very fun writing this song with Sacha and Stephen. We didn’t want to make it super serious – we just kept it fun, bouncing ideas off each other. Having that much fun during the writing process was the most meaningful part.”
The forthcoming EP was developed over a two-year period, with recording and writing sessions taking place in London, Durban and Cape Town.
According to Yandani, About You examines various aspects of young relationships, including love, heartbreak, confidence and vulnerability. The project blends pop and R&B influences across six tracks.
“With this EP I’m hoping that people see that even if you are sad and going through a lot, you’re still a baddie and you don’t need anyone to bring that down,” he said.
“You can cry and be sad but my music is here to lift your spirit and remind you that you are the baddest.”
