Last Relapse reawakens with their new single “Rats in a Cage”

Last Relapse

Atlanta’s Last Relapse is back with a new single after taking a break from the stage for 13 years. It feels like both a reunion and a revelation. “Rats in a Cage” is part of a bigger project that started with the comeback single “Everyone Dances Outside of Their Bodies.” It captures the band’s new goal: to finish what they started and finish the songs that life got in the way of.

If you remember Last Relapse from their time in the Southeast scene in the late 2000s and early 2010s, you’ll recognize the new single’s DNA: raw confession wrapped in widescreen, dreamlike guitar work. But it also has a forward push that shows real growth. “Rats in a Cage” starts off with a lot of energy. The fast beats, catchy hooks, and happy melody make you want to sing along. The bright sound of this song is easy to get into, yet it also possesses a rebellious edge that keeps the listener engaged. Underneath, there is an undercurrent of questioning and urgency.

The band’s talent has always been to mix honesty with rich musical landscapes, and this song is no different. “Rats in a Cage” appeals to you on two levels: the lively beat inspires you to move, while the more profound meaning provokes thought. That duality is what made Last Relapse connect with their early fans and what makes their return essential.

Last Relapse demonstrates their ability to create bright, rebellious pop-rock while completing their previous work. “Rats in a Cage” is a wonderful homecoming song that you can listen to and dance to. It’s bright, rebellious, makes you think, and is easy to dance to, everything that old and new fans need.

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.
