Reconnecting with her Caribbean heritage...
UK R&B artist Mahalia has announced her upcoming EP titled ‘Luvergirl.’
The new EP features seven tracks, with Mahalia having released her single ‘Instructions’ earlier this month. This song serves as a starting point for the entire project, showcasing her soulful strengths while also embracing elements of her Caribbean roots.
In a vibrant display of feminine empowerment, ‘Instructions’ sees Mahalia taking charge. “It feels like the time for women to reclaim a bit of our power, you know, not being slut-shamed, not being mocked, not being told that we can’t do what we want,” she notes in a press release. “While I’m not explicitly addressing these issues in the music, that’s the mindset I was in while creating it. It’s amusing because, in all the songs, I’m essentially instructing these men on what to do.”
The new EP ‘Luvergirl’ is set for release on August 15th, and it includes seven songs written across the UK, Jamaica, and St. Vincent.
Collaborating with artists such as Eric IV, BenjiFlow, and Savannah Jada, the majority of the project was developed during a month-long trip to the Caribbean earlier this year.
Reconnecting with the Caribbean heritage inherited from her mother’s side, ‘Luvergirl’ takes Mahalia in fresh directions.
“It was crucial for me to immerse myself in that world,” she explains, “And it’s quite special to hear my voice reflected in that manner.”
