Watch Honey Bxby and Queen Naija Perform 'Shame' Live

Honey Bxby has been a quiet force in the modern R&B landscape, but her latest collaboration with Queen Naija, "Shame," marks a definitive step into the spotlight. In a new 'From The Block' performance, the duo strips away the studio polish to let their harmonies carry the weight of a track that feels deeply indebted to the early 2000s vocal arrangements of Brandy and Monica. While Honey Bxby brings a gritty, contemporary edge rooted in the New Jersey scene, Queen Naija provides the seasoned ballast of an artist who understands how to navigate a ballad without over-singing. It’s a masterclass in restraint, proving that the genre’s current revival is less about nostalgia and more about a renewed focus on technical proficiency and raw storytelling. Keep an eye on Honey Bxby as she readies her next full-length project; the chemistry here suggests she’s found a lane that balances mainstream appeal with genuine soul.
