             Zuri
 "Been So Long" released on May 12, 2013 on Rasiah records is a perfect combination of R&B with a Latin influence that's fun to dance to and sing along with.  Zuri wrote this love song as it was something she felt she wanted in her life. She has put it out there musically and lyrically to the Universe for all to enjoy!
