Samantha Irvin’s days entertaining others aren’t over despite her exit from WWE, as new music by the former ring announcer will drop this week. Irvin will mark Valentine’s Day with the release of “Make Me.” This marks her first musical release since 2020, signaling a renewed focus on her passion for music. A description for Make Me reads:
“Make Me” is Samantha’s first solo single release since 2020. A soulful r&b/pop song that is true to her as an artist; this is the perfect re-introduction for supporters of her sound.
Irvin studied classical music from the age of four and competed nationally as a flautist. In addition to her skills on the flute, her talents led her to perform as the lead female vocalist in the “Thriller – Live” Michael Jackson tribute show from 2011 to 2015. In 2015, she gained national attention as a semi-finalist on “America’s Got Talent” and released her EP, “27Underground,” featuring the debut single “Jump High” the following year.
“Make Me” marks Irvin’s biggest move in the entertainment world since her abrupt exit from WWE in October 2024. At the time, it was reported that Irvin’s decision stemmed from an inability to pursue external projects, including her music, while part of WWE. Though some expected Irvin to join her fiance Ricochet in AEW, that has yet to happen.
Fans eagerly anticipate “Make Me,” viewing it as the beginning of an exciting new chapter in Irvin’s multifaceted career. Though Irvin recently called a return to the wrestling industry a “guarantee,” her focus remains on advancing her music career at this time.
