The keen reader will remember Avaraj from past features on our pages. Emerging from Atlanta, US, the talented singer and songwriter has been showcasing material that’s kaleidoscopic and eclectic in its musical references, while being relatable and down-to-earth in its lyricism. Originally debuting in 2020, Avaraj has been very productive, amassing a plethora of stunning singles. Oscillating between pop-punk and electronic productions, her only constant seems to be strong, evocative vocals, navigating the songs’ lyrical themes with cognition and attitude.
It is perhaps this ability to communicate with the listeners that characterizes Avaraj’s artistry. Relatability is key. By drawing inspiration from personal experiences, the American talent paints common scenarios and poignant storylines, where one can find comfort and solace. It feels good to know that someone else on this planet is going through the same troubles as you do.
‘Silhouette’ is one of Avaraj’s latest singles. Standing at the crossroads of electronica and hip-hop, the track is the perfect accompaniment for emotional, heartfelt lyrics, in which the author opens herself up to the outside world. Describing the meaning behind the song, Avaraj explains: “Silhouette” is an anthem for the most reserved introverts. I’ve never been one to share my problems with others, so that’s what this song addresses. It’s a song about trying to be a perfect for the outside world, even if it leaves you feeling like an empty shell.”
Overall, a worthy release from a clearly talented artist. Recommended!
