Elaine Kristal New Track Released – Tested

Elaine Kristal is an artist, singer, and songwriter from Staten Island, NY. This undiscovered powerful and soulful vocalist has loved music since a very early age, participating in school plays at her elementary school and singing in the hallways of her high school wearing a bandana and hoop earrings, inspired by Alicia Keys, who has been an incredible inspiration in her life and music.

Her Puerto Rican roots gave her a tune to music that she could not deny, being introduced to Latin artists such as Selena and the sounds of Janet Jackson, Blackstreet, and Prince by her father, she grew to love the sound of music and the feelings it gave her.

The ultimate vibe of a record is what you get from Elaine Kristal on the new song “Tested”. For starters, we have to acknowledge how dope the name is, with an enticing feel to it that makes you want to see what he sounds like, and when you hit play he delivers to the fullest. The music packs a hypnotizing knock to it that he takes full advantage of with a swaggy stand-out approach to the flow that is infectious and makes you enjoy the raw lyrics evermore.

Elaine’s voice offers a healing component, striking a harmonious balance between soothing and fierce, pacifying yet rousing that you can’t get enough of when she sings. Writing her first song at 13 years old and then having her first studio experience at 16 years old, she knew this is what she was born to do. Influenced by Usher, Brandy, Aaliyah, Justin Timberlake, and Def Poetry Jam performances,

Elaine’s music possesses a classic-R&B quality infused with a modern bounce, crafted by a sensual individuality that shines through in every aspect of her personality.

Many of us have lived through a relationship with that one toxic person that we will never stop loving or thinking about no matter who we ultimately end up with.

Tested” is about that toxicity. We get hurt but we often stay. We stay but imagine being far away. We look up to the stars and wonder if there is someone out there that is better for us. When asked about her inspiration for this track, Elaine said “I wrote this song after seeing my friend very upset after getting into an argument with her boyfriend. The odd thing was that he was being very insulting and disrespectful towards her. It made me wonder why anyone would stay in a relationship like that. But I also realized that there is nothing rational about love. We will often do the exact opposite of what we would advise others to do”.

Elaine Kristal works best on Indie pop, Lofi bedroom, Pop soul, Rap in English, R&B, Soul, Urban pop Catchy, Chill, Contemporary, Good vibes, Indie, Meaningful lyrics, Melodic, Original, Relax, Romantic, Sensual, & Underground.

Kalpee Honors Heritage and Heart on His Emotion-Rich New EP Dougla Boi

Kalpee

Kalpee is back with Dougla Boi, a beautiful new EP that is both personal and powerful. It gives listeners a close look at the layers of identity, heritage, and emotion that make him who he is. The Trinidad and Tobago artist is confident in his own space, which is rooted in New Calypso and polished with hints of dancehall, R&B, and afrobeats. In this space, genre bends, but emotion leads.

Named after the Trinidadian word for someone of mixed African and Indian heritage, Dougla Boi is honest, proud, and warm about the complexities of culture. Kalpee opens a window into the dualities that define him across six tracks, turning personal truth into universal resonance. The EP is just under 19 minutes long, but every second is carefully planned to take listeners on a journey through courage, joy, healing, and the quiet strength that comes from accepting all parts of yourself.

The first single, “Under,” stands out right away for its calming yet emotionally charged experience. Kalpee’s voice flows over a beat that sounds both new and old, fitting the EP’s theme of bringing cultures together. It’s one of the best examples of how he can mix soft and hard sounds, which is what makes his New Calypso sound so unique.

“Everybody,” which features Full Blown, is another excellent song that has already done very well. It has a happy vibe and an infectious bounce, making it one of the EP’s most replayable songs. “Everybody” captures the spirit of community and shared experience, which is what Kalpee means when he says that identity is not a box but a rhythm.
