Kendra Erika shares “Catch Me” music video

Kendra Erika has spent the last decade showing that dance music and theatrical storytelling can move together in spectacular fashion. While her career has been built on infectious club records and chart success, there’s always been a cinematic element running beneath the surface of her work. The singer-songwriter and actress has always favoured music that feels larger than life, combining slick production with a flair for drama that’s become one of her defining strengths. From chart-topping dance anthems to visually ambitious performances, she’s crafted an artistic output through confidence, glamour and timeless entertainment.

That journey has already delivered an impressive list of milestones, securing five Billboard Top Ten dance hits and reaching the summit of the Billboard Dance Club Songs chart with her reimagining of Laura Branigan’s classic “Self-Control.” Produced by Damon Sharpe alongside Eric Sanicola, the track transformed the beloved 1984 hit into a modern dance anthem that not only introduced the song to a new generation but surpassed the original’s chart success by reaching number one on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart. Its popularity also secured Kendra a place in the chart’s prestigious Year End Top 30, confirming her status as one of modern dance music’s most reliable hitmakers.

Over the years, Kendra has continually broadened her creative scope; she revisited another classic with her interpretation of “WitchCraft,” while continuing to build momentum through original material including “Thriller Killer,” a release that clocked more than a million views while earning extensive MTV rotation and widespread US radio support. The Cahill remix of the track also found success in the UK, climbing to number two on the Music Week Commercial Pop Club Chart. Subsequent releases, including “Dance In The Fire” and “Body Language,” amplified her reputation for blending dance energy with memorable songwriting and wide pop appeal.

Her cinematic ambitions now reach their fullest expression with the upcoming album License to Thrill, an expansive outing that celebrates the enduring legacy of James Bond. At the heart of the project sits “Catch Me,” an original composition that inhabits the same world as Bond classics while establishing a unique identity of its own, with the song capturing the atmosphere of espionage, glamour and suspense through its own musical language. Produced by Damon Sharpe and co-written with Kendra, it introduces listeners to a world of seductive mystery wrapped up in a smokey dance pop setting.

Revolving around a mysterious bassline and punching beats, “Catch Me” gathers momentum before expanding into an energetic, cinematic production. Strings and bold brass arrangements heighten the tension throughout, creating an atmosphere that balances elegance with excitement while lyrically, the song explores confidence, attraction and the delicate balance between pursuit and control. Capped by Kendra’s incredible vocal performance, the track presents an infectious dance pop outing that brings together the worlds of catchy music and cinematic, spy thrillers.

The accompanying visual extends that context even further with an animated music video created in collaboration with HIP Video Productions. The video plays out like a miniature action film, complete with casinos, motorcycle chases, international settings and dramatic confrontations as Kendra embraces the role of an enigmatic leading figure whose poise remains unshaken even in moments of escalating danger. License to Thrill represents another exciting chapter for an artist who continues to demonstrate that her music is about creating immersive experiences that invite listeners into worlds where elegance, excitement and escapism collide and we can’t wait to see what the full record has in store.
