Toryia releases an emotional R&B tune, entitled, “No Favors”

Toryia (Victoria Rotchenkova) is a UK-based singer-songwriter from Riga, Latvia. Not too long ago, she released an emotional R&B tune, entitled, “No Favors.”

Toryia – “No Favors” single

“‘No favors’ is inspired by my personal growth from toxic/controlling relationships. I created this song to highlight that no matter how emotionally dependent we become on another person, we have to remember not to lose ourselves. I wanted this song to inspire people to always choose and trust themselves no matter how difficult it might feel at the moment.” – Toryia explained

‘No Favors’ contains a relatable narrative and ear-pleasing vocals that will resonate well with fans of Summer Walker, H.E.R., Givēon, and Sabrina Claudio. The expressive tune possesses piano-laden instrumentation flavored with a warm contemporary R&B vibration. Furthermore, “No Favors” serves as a tasty appetizer to what listeners can expect to hear from Toryia in the near future as she continues to release new music.

“I always felt the need to express myself through music. There was no doubt in my mind that I wanted to be a singer or an artist. Even when it seemed impossible, I never stopped working on my goals or lost any hope.” – Toryia explained

Since childhood, Toryia’s dream was inspired by her great love for the arts and self-expression. She grew up with a mixed heritage of Armenian, Russian, and Polish. Looking back, Toryia encountered many obstacles along the way that she had to overcome. She had a job where she took every hour she could just so that she could pay for her vocal lessons. Also, she spent countless hours working on herself just so she could sing the songs she wanted. All of her hard work wasn’t for nothing, because now, Toryia is sharing her music with the world.

Toryia began writing in 2010 – not knowing anything about the music industry. She took popular instrumentals, turned them into her own songs, and posted the songs on her social media. Today, Toryia strives to inspire other creatives to follow their passion and heart. During her life journey, she has learned that it doesn’t matter how slow you go – just as long as you keep moving, which has become her life motto.
