The new album, ‘Mixed Emotions’ takes listeners on a journey through the various stages of love, heartache, and self-discovery. The EP of 6 tracks, all of which individually and collectively tell a story of an ambitious lady that is demanding for ‘My Time’ in the music industry to shine and do great things. That lady suddenly falls in love for the ‘First Time’ and gets disappointed by a ‘Foolish’ guy. After all the mixed emotions, she struggles to overcome ‘Over You’. As part of the distractions to rise above the heartbreak, she takes to the dance floor to ‘Dance’ and ultimately realises that she needs to be strong again, refocus and rebuild herself ‘Margins’.

Each track on the EP serves as a window into her soul. Emelonye bravely tackles the intricacies of love, growth, and self-discovery. The project scores good points in storytelling, where her rich, emotive vocals guide us through a spectrum of feelings.

What makes ‘Mixed Emotions’ truly remarkable is its blend of captivating melodies and poignant lyrics.
