Rebekah Snyder delivers a heartfelt tribute to the core soul of a nation in her recent single, “America”
“America,” the new single released by Rebekah Snyder, an Alt-country/Americana artist, presents an enchanting sonic adventure; it’s a living, breathing piece that weaves together her storytelling, with perhaps our perspective as well.
Born from Appalachian roots and written just a day after 9/11, “America” arrives as a stripped-down acoustic ballad that carries the weight of both personal and collective history with unwavering honesty. With nothing more than a guitar and her quietly commanding voice, Rebekah unpacks the emotion of that moment: grief, pride, confusion, and above all, hope. She paints a portrait of a country stitched together by love, loss, and generational resilience. The song doesn’t shout patriotism with waving flags mindlessly; it whispers it through the memories of her WWII veteran grandfather, the struggles of single motherhood, and the scars of surviving domestic violence. It’s a form of patriotism that honors the people who have quietly held this country together: rural families, soldiers, and women who endure and rebuild.
What makes “America” hit hardest is its sincere humanity. It is not embellished with glitter or overly produced; its strength lies in its rare authenticity. Every note feels less like a performance and more like an intimate conversation around a kitchen table or a long drive through small-town roads. In these moments, families quietly connect while striving for a better world and fighting for what is right.
Rebekah, buoyed by her experience as a licensed flight instructor, delivers this ballad with the grounded clarity of someone who has seen both the skies and the depths of life’s challenges firsthand. There is a gentle gravity in her voice that compels you to listen. Produced by Tempe Hale, this song tells her story while also resonating deeply with many who have felt unseen or unheard.
The official music video, filmed in Los Angeles by Marcos Durian, complements the song’s intimacy with a striking visual simplicity, allowing the already poignant track to shine while grounding it in the everyday beauty of the city. With “America,” Rebekah Snyder reminds listeners that patriotism can be personal and that true resilience is often a legacy passed down through generations. This single serves as a heartfelt introduction to what promises to be an emotionally rich year of releases from an artist unafraid to tell the truth, and she is here to sing it loud and clear.

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