Drag performer and Drag Race Philippines runner-up Marina Summers brings the heat this November with her debut single under Tarsier Records titled "Divine."
The dance-pop song celebrates the queer community and promotes taking ownership of one's individuality while playing around with the summer theme and "heavenly" references. It's a mix of dancehall and pop sounds with splashes of Latin guitar.
Tarsier Records label head Moophs produced the track while Marina wrote the lyrics and melody. The lines, such as "Gotta leave your fear behind. Kill the demons in your mind. Get baptized and keep it tight," are expected to deliver a confidence boost to listeners.
Within three days of its release, "Divine" racked up over 23,000 views on YouTube and more than 20,000 streams on Spotify. Shortly after the song's release, RuPaul'sDrag Race superstar Alaska Thunderfuck featured Marina's likeness in a backdrop during a performance. Marina posted about the incident, saying, "Thanks wifey."
Marina performed her newest single live at the Divine Official Launch Party to a raving crowd in Empty Stomach at Bonifacio Global City in Taguig City on 6 November. The event featured performances from fellow Tarsier artist Zion Aguirre and fellow Drag Playhouse PH queens Eva Le Queen, Prince, and ØV Cünt.
Marina is one of the newest additions to Tarsier Records' roster of artists. She performs regularly at Nectar Nightclub and is one of the founders of the drag house Drag Playhouse PH.
"Divine" can be streamed from various digital platforms. Its music video is on YouTube.
