Remember when it was all over the internet that a girl got Harry Styles tattooed on her face? Meet Kelsy Karter. After her track βHarryβ went viral (fantastic publicity stunt with the fake face tattoo), sheβs back with βWhat Uβ. Alongside collaborators on the track, Anthony Rossomando (A Star is Born) and Tony Esterly, 2019 is looking to be a great year for the LA artist. Showcasing her ability to situate a pop arrangement with storming rock vocals, βWhat Uβ is exactly what youβve been looking for.
Representing the spirit of Kelsy, βWhat Uβ has a careless nature that will leave you speechless. About becoming the best version of yourself, the feel good element of the track stops you in your tracks. Instrumentally, it sounds blues based with the edginess of The Black Keys and Miles Kane. Unique vocals are really the prominent part of the track. Kelsy has her own originality and voice which is so rare. The last original voice that roseΒ to the top had to be Amy Winehouse in my eyes, and there really is something special hidden in Kelsyβs tone. She wants something, she goes and gets it. Sheβs wanting to reach the top, and sheβll get it. Declaring that sheβs not going anywhere anytime soonβ¦ Kelsy is here to stay.Β
Score: 3/5
