7 Boy shares his heart in new single “Like I Do”

Every artist has a moment when their story begins. For 7 Boy, it started behind a drum set in church. Growing up in New York City, he found rhythm before he found his voice. But at 14, everything changed. Watching a classmate sing Ne-Yo’s “So Sick” lit a spark — one that pushed him to start writing his own songs and sharing his gift with the world.

‍

Now, the R&B artist, born Michael Booker, is releasing his latest single “Like I Do”, out September 26, 2025 through Octiive.

The track is a soulful reflection on love, vulnerability, and living in truth. “It’s okay to be in love, to hurt,” 7 Boy says. “As long as you live in your truth, everything will be fine.” The message is simple but powerful — embracing your emotions is part of healing and growth.

‍

Drawing influence from icons like James Brown, Michael Jackson, Sam Cooke, and Prince, 7 Boy blends timeless soul with modern R&B production. His sound is polished yet deeply personal, combining sharp beats with a voice that carries both strength and honesty.

With Like I Do, 7 Boy invites listeners to connect with the beauty and pain of real emotion. It’s a reminder that love, even when it hurts, can lead us back to ourselves.

Like I Do is available now on all major streaming platforms.
