Chel - Sweet Spot (Single)
The latest track from R&B artist Chel is new single ‘Sweet Spot’ laced in audacity, confidence and flirtatiousness. It’s a track that ventures further into the sounds from her last EP, ‘Love.Obsession.Lust’, bringing in the influences of Afropop and giving us a fresh new direction from previous releases. The beat features punchy kick drums and bouncy percussion which surround your ears. These relaxing rhythms are layered with enticing guitar melodies, glittery keys and the hum of a warm but hard-hitting bass. Spacious instrumentation sets a foundation for the alluring vocal performance, with Chel’s glamorous layers of vocal harmonies and self-assured lead line creating a gorgeous and polished final track.
Chel shares on the new track, “I wanted to express how I love on the person I'm interested in. I'm intentional and focused, more importantly I have fun. The dating game can be fake, everyone is pretending, and people often can't meet the expectations they set. I like to be real, honest and in the moment. I value the same in return, so I wrote about it."
British indie singer/songwriter Chel releases music that fuses R&B and Pop, with her discography influenced by the likes of Jojo, Kehlani and Tinashe. The final product is tracks that are arresting, both in their lyrics and vocal performances.
Growing up in a suburb of North London, Chel’s teenage desire to create music led to her subsequent enrolment in a school of performing arts, where she honed her innate talents. In 2017 she started to play at open mics and by 2018, her first EP ‘Reclaiming My Love’ was released into the world. Since this release, Chel has collaborated with the likes of C Cane and Joey K for ‘I Got It’ and ‘Love Me’ respectively, which earned her features on RNBrit, GRM Daily, Link Up, Mixtape Madness, The Voice Newspaper, Raydar Magazine, Noctis Magazine, Into The Culture, SpotlightFirst and Industry Me.
A multi-faceted creator, Chel’s video production prowess was shown in her videos for ‘Next Level’ and ‘Pesa (Give It All)’. After the release of two EPs in 2021, ‘NOLAH’ and ‘Love.Obsession.Lust’, the artist has shown her talents, potential and ferocity to the world, ready to take on the industry again with ‘Sweet Spot’.
