Remy Reilly Captures the Essence of New Love in Radiant Single, “What Do Ya Know”
Indie-pop singer Remy Reilly releases her exhilarating new single “What Do Ya Know,” a heartwarming ode to new love, vulnerability, and the beauty of staying true to oneself. Following her eclectic EP Avalanche from last year, this emerging Dallas artist once again demonstrates her versatility and commitment to authentic storytelling. “What Do Ya Know” is now available for streaming and downloading on all digital platforms worldwide.
The song captures the thrill of diving headfirst into love and choosing to see the best in others, despite past disappointments. Through the breezy, carefree pop-rock melodies and Reilly’s unique soulful rasp, listeners can’t help but get swept up in the infectious euphoria the track evokes. At its core, “What Do Ya Know” reflects a newfound wisdom – the ability to remain open to life’s possibilities, much like the happy endings found in films.
Discussing the inspiration behind the song, Remy Reilly shares her resolve to maintain her authenticity and optimism, even after experiencing heartbreak. “I was annoyed that I still saw the good in people after they had done bad things, but then I realized it was a wonderful property to have,” she explains. “There are going to be bad people in your life, but you choose whether you change it and take it as a lesson. I never wanted to change my personality or light way of looking at people just because one person wasn’t kind to me.”
This Texas-based indie-pop artist has become known for her continuous evolution in sound, blending a wide range of musical influences with her poignant songwriting and soulful vocals. With “What Do Ya Know,” Reilly once again breaks free from genre boundaries, crafting a sound that is both refreshing and innovative. Her dedication to authenticity has set her apart from other artists and helped establish her as an emerging voice in the Dallas music scene.
Remy Reilly’s previous work includes her 2022 EP Avalanche, which delved into topics such as self-love and female empowerment. Drawing from her own experiences and those of her friends, Reilly has gained a reputation for exploring the challenges of adolescence with curiosity and genuine emotion. She has opened for numerous big-name acts, won the Dallas Observer’s Best New Act award, and received accolades from the likes of Music Connection Magazine, Elicit Magazine, and Prelude Press.
Brimming with energy and capturing the excitement of new romance, “What Do Ya Know” serves as a triumphant reminder to let go of the past and embrace love’s endless possibilities. This single marks yet another milestone in Remy Reilly’s honest, spirited musical journey, leaving listeners eagerly anticipating what she will create next.

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.
