Kayla Marque’s “Heartbeat Chemtrail” is a love song laced with venom

H

On her new single, “Heartbeat Chemtrail,” Kayla Marque has given us a combination of intimacy and toxicity, forging a landscape as beautiful to the ear as it is bruising to the heart. This is a slow burn of a romantic demise. “Heartbeat Chemtrail” surges with an emotional electricity. Just the title conjures an image of love that lingers in the sky, beautiful and shining but deadly, perhaps. Marque blurs the boundaries between vulnerability and risk, matching heartbeats with fallout and close feelings with collateral.

This is a lush production, but never a florid one, allowing Marque’s vocal to ache and simmer. Her delivery is like a dark secret, whispered in the dark, delicately balanced between nothing and creeping doom. Each word feels selected, every pause is intentional, and each moment draws listeners further into a story that feels universal and achingly personal. The real tool here is emotion. You can hear the heft of each note bearing down on your chest, the push and pull of a relationship that sustains and corrodes in equal measure. It all feels cinematic, like watching a love story unfold slowly, knowing it’s heading toward an exquisite collapse. But that’s the genius of “Heartbeat Chemtrail.”

It doesn’t flinch from the turned-silver double-edged blade of love, the sweetness of it and the sting, the hope and the damage. Instead, it embraces them and dares to romanticize the wreckage without glamorizing the pain. It’s about the path to heartbreak, the chemical trail love leaves behind. Kayla Marque has created an experience. “Heartbeat Chemtrail” is a reminder that love goes as thick and heady, seductive, and suffocating. And at other times, the most intoxicating connections are those with a warning label. “Heartbeat Chemtrail” hangs in the air long after the last note, like smoke in the air or a thought you can’t quite stop.

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.
