Premiere: Alisha Liston Is Going For The Home Run With Beautiful Illusion
With 3 singles out this year, Alisha Liston is aiming for a full-blown EP titled Beautiful Illusion.
Alisha wrote the striking EP as a means to encourage young individuals to keep on pushing and enduring all that is thrown at them. It is the soundscape to help them face any and all obstacles. However, she aims to shed light on those challenges and picture them as a beautiful illusion. In other words, these obstacles while painful can in fact be the incentive to push in our growth. By their power to make us stronger than ever, these hurdles maintain a certain level of beauty.
Beautiful Illusion is made up of six songs, plus a bonus track. Each song varies in tempo and form, keeping her fans on edge. Some of the records hold acoustic charm, while the rest are upbeat and cheerful ushering to a new sound. With this seductive myriad of soundscapes, Alisha Liston is telling a story—from the strife to the hope and everything else in between.
Her previously released single “Whose Definition,” which happens to be the second track of the EP, garnered more than 100K streams on Spotify.
Her airy and hypnotic demeanor lushes bright and optimistic vocals, as she covers a much-needed topic.

Leyla Romanova finds strength in silence on new release “Self-Control”
Leyla Romanova‘s new single, “Self-Control,” is a powerful emotional release that feels more like a manifesto for surviving modern chaos than a song. In a world of opinions, urgency, and emotional exhaustion, Romanova offers a track based on one radical idea: not reacting.
“Self-Control” immediately creates tension and clarity. The drums keep everything together with discipline and purpose. As the textured instrumentals expand like waves of thought through a crowded mind, the bass anchors the listener emotionally.
The contrast between outside noise and inside stillness makes the song compelling. Romanova’s work captures the feeling of being overwhelmed by pressure, opinions, and distractions while silently retaining personal peace. There are no major uprisings. But restraint is power. The song knows energy conservation is a survival strategy.

J’mall expresses the pain of chasing someone else’s success over your own on “Unattainable”
J’mall’s latest single, “Unattainable,” expresses the pain of chasing someone else’s success over your own. The song explores the emotional void caused by constant comparison rather than motivation.
“Unattainable” is about realizing that no matter how hard one works to meet others’ expectations, the reward will never be satisfying. J’mall explores the stress of “keeping up with the Joneses” and the exhaustion of comparing yourself to standards that weren’t meant for you.
The song’s honesty resonates, the message doesn’t feel preachy or polished. It feels personal, like J’mall is sharing life lessons. The record’s quiet strength is its embrace of individuality and personal responsibility without pretending it’s easy.
