With over nine million views on Youtube and live acoustic performances on several distinct talk shows, Alessia Cara finds herself moving to the top of the charts. The nineteen year old R&B singer/songwriter recently debuted her new EP Four Pink Walls, including her hit single “Here.”

Four Pink Walls consists of five tracks that Alessia wrote with Sebastian Cole, a singer/songwriter and producer. The track represents past experiences and life lessons she encountered during her teen years, allowing young adults to connect with her music. The EP contains a variety of different songs anyone can enjoy, ranging from a romantic love song such as “I’m Yours” to an upbeat hit like “Seventeen.”

“Here,” stands as the most viewed song on her Youtube channel. Alessia confesses the song as being “a party song, but really it’s the opposite of a party song.” She describes her unfortunate experience at a house party she attended at sixteen. The song relates to anyone who ever felt uncomfortable in a social situation or, as Alessia puts it, “the person in the corner of the party, looking around uncomfortably.” “Here” touches the introvert in all of us.

“Four Pink Walls” takes on another persona, focusing on Alessia’s dreams of

becoming successful. She describes lying within in the four pink walls of her bedroom and daydream of becoming a prosperous artist. The song focuses on the importance of making dreams a reality and reaching important goals. Alessia gives encouragement and hope for teens who are also dreaming in their four walls, just as she was.

Alessia Cara gains more supporters with every song she releases, saying “‘Def Jam’ gave me the opportunity to say something meaningful and positive without being preachy. I didn’t expect everything to feel so natural and organic. And I can’t believe how quickly it’s going.” With her uplifting beats and charismatic personality, her possibilities remain endless.

After watching the music video for “Four Pink Walls” and taking a look at her other four songs on the track, I now find the reason why Alessia Cara caused such a stir. Her genuine lyrics and lively persona make Alessia Cara an authentic musical artist. For more information on Alessia Cara visit her website at www.alessiacara.com.
