Courtney Rhodes Turns Up the Summer Heat with Breezy New Single 'Mini Shorts (On)'

Rising R&B talent Courtney Rhodes delivers the season’s ultimate feel-good anthem with “Mini Shorts (On),” a sultry mid-tempo track that oozes summer confidence and sensual self-assurance. With smooth vocals, breezy production, and a groove that instantly puts you in your vibe, Rhodes offers up a celebration of womanhood, body confidence, and that magic moment when your whole mood shifts with the right outfit.

Crafted entirely by Rhodes—from the beat to the bassline—“Mini Shorts (On)” is more than just a flirtatious bop. It’s a flex in creative control. The Houston-born, Atlanta-raised artist is not only a trained vocalist and multi-instrumentalist but also a producer and songwriter with a degree in Music Management. The track highlights both her musical maturity and playful charm.

Built around a dreamy guitar loop, with Rhodes’ signature bass and a lush, airy mix, the song floats effortlessly between flirty and empowering. Her vocals—equal parts tender and confident—invite listeners into a moment many know well: stepping into an outfit that feels like armour and allure all in one.

“It’s for the girlies,” says Rhodes. “That moment when you throw on your favourite pair of shorts, feel yourself, and your man can’t take his eyes—or hands—off you.”

Following the release of her 2021 debut Infatuated, “Mini Shorts (On)” marks a clear evolution in sound and identity. It’s a vibe-heavy track that holds space for both fun and finesse, a testament to Rhodes’ growing presence in the indie R&B scene.

Set to become a summer staple, “Mini Shorts (On)” is more than a song—it’s a mood, a movement, and a reminder that confidence never goes out of season.
