Gabrielle Manna breaks free with “Curse Your Name”
Gabrielle Manna’s latest single, “Curse Your Name,” is an uncommon auricular paradox that is utterly danceable and emotionally shattering. With pulsating synths, bold pop-rock touches, and a funk-infused rhythm that dares you to move, Manna delivers a song that takes you by surprise in the best way possible.
Underneath the groove, a soul-baring story snarls. “Curse Your Name” is Manna’s courageous face-off with that past, a near-unbearable, deeply personal reckoning with the trauma wrought by her late stepfather, who loomed ominously over her formative years like some evil specter, leaving scars that still howl. If anything was buried or silenced, this is a melodic storm of resilience now.
This isn’t your typical empowerment anthem. Manna doesn’t sugarcoat or simplify the difficult path of healing. She doesn’t ignore the shame, the self-blame, the impossibly heavy internalized burden that survivors too often lug around that comes with sharing these stories. But in vibrant lyricism and a nearly contrarian vocal performance, she reasserts the power balance. This is a new self-claiming. There’s a peculiar beauty to the juxtaposition trauma unspooling across disco-tinged synths and the kind of sharp, catchy, bowling-alley-magnetic hooks that her young, mosh-pitting audiences can latch on to even as they put in the bathroom line.
The rare song belongs to the release of singing it loudly and the exposure of knowing precisely what it means. In this track, Manna displays emotional maturity. Manna is calling out an aching past and forgiving herself, leaving space for you to follow suit. There’s freedom in her voice, a whiff of peace starting to parachute down from the ashes of the chaos. This is therapy decorated in sequins and synths. In “Curse Your Name,” Gabrielle Manna leaps and dances through the flame, coaxing us to do the same, not to forget what bruised us and burned our pride, but to make sure it no longer leaves a welt with every step.

Lisa Boostani creates a mesmerizing tidal realm in “Ocean”
Lisa Boostani’s “Ocean” takes you deep into a sensory world where body, spirit, and myth come together, beyond the surface of genre. Boostani makes a soundscape that is both ethereal and deeply human by combining the broad essence of psychedelic pop with the strong appeal of alternative rock.
Her voice rises as if it is coming from deep within her, shaped by emotion rather than action. She intentionally channels the intangible, turning weakness into strength rather than a source of pain, and “Ocean” tells people to get involved in this inner world, not just watch it. This release is an integral part of her first EP, “One,” which will come out in March 2026 and is based on love, sensuality, and unity.
If “Ocean” is any indication, the EP will show sensuality not as something pretty, but as a kind of spiritual intelligence, a way to know yourself by connecting with others. The song’s textures and structure have an aquatic quality, moving between clarity and delirium, rhythm and freedom. Its emotional focus is on immersion instead of resolution.
The striking quality of “Ocean” is the blend of the mystical worlds. Boostani understands that strength often shows up as gentleness and that deep feelings are better expressed through frequencies than words. She wants people to see consciousness as immediacy, sensation as truth, and openness as an undeniable strength.
