Meet singer-songwriter Sid Tipton. Born and raised in Nashville, Tennessee, Tipton began her songwriting journey at a young age and by the time she was 17 years old, her catalog consisted of 100 self-written songs. Since then, she’s signed to Timbaland’s publishing company, Bluestone, contributed to songs performed by recording artists like JoJo, Tinashe, Justin Timberlake, and contributed to Maluma’s Grammy-winning album, F.A.M.E. (hear “Mi Declaracion”).
Now, contemporary R&B artist is stepping into her own with her new single entitled “Look Both Ways.” On the track, co-produced by Timbaland, Angel Lopez, and Federico Vindver, Tipton makes it clear how important it is to put yourself first while watching your own back.
“‘Look Both Ways’ was written unexpectedly because the artist I was supposed to write for had to cancel,” she shares with VIBE. “I don’t usually mind when that happens because then I get to be the artist (Laughs).
“I had been kinda annoyed with fake friends at the time so the record is really about watching your own back, she adds. “The engineer gave me six tracks to choose from and as soon as I heard the beat I was like, ‘Yo, please turn me on asap.'”
