Elaine Kristal Wants to Escape to a Far Away Place With That Special Someone By Her Side.

After releasing her song, "Love Over Living", Elaine Kristal continued to apply pressure as she released her single, "Sweet Escape." It premiered on July 1, 2022.

With production that reminds you of a mix of drill and late-90s/early-2000s R&B, NYC multihyphenated artist Elaine Kristal sings about trying to find a piece of peace with a lover. The song is about trying to find someone to bring you that peace and take you away from your surroundings, even if it’s only for a fleeting moment.

It is evident in the lyrics where she said:

"Surrounded by the everyday shit / Routine been feeling way too basic / I been thinking it’s time we switch up the playlist / Expand horizons to different places /

So when I go / Will I see you there by my side? / We can cross roads / Or live in the air if you wanna fly"

Be my / Can you be my sweet escape? / We could take a trip to space / It’ll give us the time / To find a peace of mind"

Throughout the music video, she wants to forget her problems and spends the rest of the day with someone who makes her happy. The visuals depicted how her partner is her "Sweet Escape" from her basic routine.

I love the music video. It depicted a journey of love with someone special. It has an infectious beat from start to finish that fit perfectly with her singing vocals. Therefore, I rate the track 10/10.

Bio:

Elaine Kristal is a singer and songwriter from Staten Island, NY. This undiscovered powerful and soulful vocalist has loved music since a very early age, participating in school plays at her elementary school and singing in the hallways of her high school wearing a bandana and hoop earrings, inspired by Alicia Keys, who has been an incredible inspiration in her life and music.

Her Puerto Rican roots gave her a tune to music that she could not deny, being introduced to Latin artists such as Selena and the sounds of Janet Jackson, Blackstreet, and Prince by her father, she grew to love the sound of music and the feelings it gave her. Elaine’s voice offers a healing component, striking a harmonious balance between soothing and fierce, pacifying yet rousing that you can’t get enough of when she sings.

Writing her first song at 13 years old and then having her first studio experience at 16 years old, she knew this is what she was born to do. Influenced by Usher, Brandy, Aaliyah, Justin Timberlake, and Def Poetry Jam performances, Elaine’s music possesses a classic R&B quality infused with a modern bounce, crafted by a sensual individuality that shines through in every aspect of her personality.
