Nasty C' longtime partner and mother of his child, Sammie Heavens, is set to drop her new single Not So Big On Romance this week, as revealed in an Instagram post by Slikour OnLife.

Now a musician, Sammie is seemingly becoming even more like Nasty C, as some fans previously mistook her for him.

The announcement positions the track as a continuation of Heavens' steady rise, adding to her discography amid her personal milestones as a parent and partner. Known for her soulful R&B-infused sound, Heavens has kept a low profile since welcoming her son Oliver in 2023, focusing on family while quietly building her music presence.

Sammie Heavens' musical come up

Heavens started her music career by releasing her debut EP, July, in July 2022, after gaining a following by sharing her poetry on TikTok. She had been writing poetry since high school but was initially hesitant to share her work publicly.

She gained significant attention by posting videos of herself reciting her poetry on TikTok. The positive response and demand from her followers encouraged her to turn her poetry into music.

Heavens transitioned into a musician, specifically a rapper, with support and inspiration from Nasty C. She has noted that Nasty C pushed her to be "unapologetic" about pursuing music.

Since her debut, she has continued to release singles and build her presence in the music industry.
