Kelsie Kimberlin drops the redolence of love in her recent single “Perfume”

If love had a perfect scent, Kelsie Kimberlin, a prolific artist and songwriter, has just bottled it in her latest single, “Perfume.” The American pop prodigy returns with her third release of 2025, delivering a glowing and gently intoxicating track that wraps itself around listeners like a breath of fresh, favorite fragrance, lingering beautifully long after it’s gone.
In “Perfume,” Kelsie goes beyond simply singing about love; she embodies it. The song is a metaphorical masterpiece in which perfume symbolizes an irresistible emotional connection. It’s light, hypnotic, and enchanting, just mirroring the invisible yet undeniable attraction she’s portraying. There’s something almost cinematic about how she draws you into the story of a boy so captivated by her essence that he follows her like a whisper in the wind.
The music video brings her cinematic style and signature vocals to life and reveals a poetic journey shot in collaboration with acclaimed director Pavlo Khomiuk. It follows Kelsie silently gliding through romantic cobblestone streets, her presence conveying everything without a single word. The chemistry between her and her partner is quiet, authentic, and utterly magnetic rather than loud or performative.
With industry heavyweights like Liam Noland (Adele) on the mix and Stuart Hawkes (Amy Winehouse) on mastering, the production benefits from an emotive and technically proficient polished finish. Every beat and musical element is meticulously placed with intention, subtle but powerful, and completely unforgettable.
Ultimately, “Perfume” provides an auditory experience that navigates the delicate balance between sensory perception and emotional vulnerability, where love lingers like your cherished fragrance on a lover’s sweater. Just like that scent, it doesn’t scream, ‘I’m in love,’ its understated delivery and intricate production invite deep reflection, compelling the audiences to savor its ephemeral beauty long after the final note fades.

Playboi Carti Feels “Like Weezy” as MUSIC Dominates the Streets

Playboi Carti is known for his unique style and unpredictable nature, but when he celebrates his achievements, he compares himself to one of the biggest names in hip-hop: Lil Wayne. Recently, his album MUSIC sold an impressive 500,000 copies in just two weeks, leading Carti to proclaim on social media, “FEELING LIKE WEEZY WE ALREADY PLATINUM N DA STREETS,” which means he feels as successful as Lil Wayne. Lil Wayne has greatly impacted hip-hop, and Carti has always admired him. You can see this influence in Carti’s music and style.
For example, Carti’s latest release is named after Wayne’s famous mixtape, showing just how much he looks up to the rap legend. Like Wayne, who built a massive following of loyal fans, Carti has also captivated the music scene. Interestingly, the success of MUSIC coincided with the ten-year anniversary of Carti’s first big hit, Broke Boi. A decade ago, he was just starting out, but now he is a well-established artist whose music releases are highly anticipated events. Fans are now looking forward to his upcoming album, BABY BOI. Given Carti’s history of surprising fans, it might take a while before the album drops.

But that excitement is part of what makes being a fan enjoyable. Like his promotional strategies, his previous album, Whole Lotta Red, was filled with surprises. At the same time, Lil Wayne is set to release his new album, Tha Carter VI, this year, creating an interesting parallel between the two artists. While one hip-hop icon continues his legacy, the other is making a name for himself while paying homage to the past. Regardless of when BABY BOI is released, Carti’s influence shows no signs of slowing down, and if he truly is “like Weezy,” the best is yet to come.
