Today rising stars Shae Gill and Evdeki Saat have released a new song – “One Love”, their first collaboration project with COKE STUDIO™, Coca-Cola’s global music platform, which brings the most exciting emerging and breakthrough artists from all corners of the world together to create ‘Real Magic’. 

Coca-Cola’s ‘Real Magic’ brand philosophy celebrates the magic of human connection and the belief that our differences make the world a richer and more interesting place. It is a celebration of the real-life moments and the magic, that happens when people come together.

One of the rising names of alternative pop, Turkey’s Evdeki Saat first reached new heights with 2020’s “Uzunlar V1”, which has over 120 million Spotify streams to date.

Fresh from singing cover songs on her Instagram in a friend’s bedroom, 24-year-old Pakistani singer Shae Gill’s made her debut in Coke Studio Pakistan in 2022, as part of the hugely successful global hit “Pasoori”. “Pasoori” is the most streamed Pakistani song of all time on Spotify, as well as reaching #1 on the global viral chart. To date, it has been viewed close to 600 million times on Youtube.  

Commenting on the collision song, Evdeki Saat said, “I think it’s always exciting to be involved in Coke Studio as a musician. The project itself is so exciting. A global collaboration was something that I wanted to experience in my music career. I always love to connect with other musical cultures. Shae is a great representative of her culture, also a great musician and personality. I enjoyed the challenging process of our decision on making of the song.”

“The inspiration for the track was based around the themes of romance, new love and the open expression of love. It was a pleasure collaborating with him because he’s such a gifted and kind person. On top of that I felt like we made a lot of sense musically and that just made this collaboration all the more exciting.” Shae Gill added.

The release of “One Love” follows “Be Who You Are (Real Magic)”, this year’s COKE STUDIO™ anthem by Grammy-award-winning American musician, Jon Batiste featuring NewJeans, J.I.D, Camilo and Cat Burns.
