Rising R&B Artist Adam Wilson Reveals Stunning New EP Awake

Rising R&B artist Adam Wilson has returned with his brand-new EP, Awake, a six-track collection of smooth, soulful R&B that captures the essence of what the genre is all about – strong, emotive vocals and stunning storytelling. Having already made an impression with previous projects Dear So & So and Dreams, the Chicago-born, LA-based artist looks set to continue his ascent in the R&B scene with this new release.

Playing violin since the age of four and finding his voice and picking up other instruments along the way, Adam has been involved in music his whole life. This lifelong experience is captured on Awake, which is entirely self-produced. The lead single “Uninvolved”, which provides one of the many highlights on the EP, showcases not only Adam’s polished production skills but also his captivating vocals and impressive songwriting abilities as he opens up about recognizing an unhealthy relationship, drawing on themes of self-realization and reflection. With an emotion-evoking piano over modern beats, the track recalls the likes of James Blake and Majid Jordan.

Speaking further on “Uninvolved”, Adam says, “I was living in NYC, and I walked through a random park and ran into someone that I was seeing with another man’s arm around her. I went back to my Brooklyn apartment distraught, and the song was produced and written within three hours. It all came so naturally.

“‘Uninvolved’ is about coming to a point of realizing that a relationship is no longer good for you. Being in a relationship, to me, is about growing together and encouraging each other’s best selves. This song is about self-worth and knowing that you deserve more in a relationship and that sometimes cutting things off is the best thing you can do for your health and happiness.”

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.
