Libianca – People | Vevo DSCVR Artists To Watch 2024

Start with 2019’s “LEVEL” and work your way towards this year’s “Tonight,” and you see how Libianca’s early promise has morphed into her current maturity, the kind that makes its mark with emotional candor, musical vision, and augmented stature. We appreciated Complex positing that the Cameroonian-American singer/songwriter behind last year’s rather incredible “People” “defied the algorithmic odds.” Meaning that the singer who also brought a gentle passion to her cover of Billie Eilish’s “Everything I Wanted” started hot, but instead of flaming out, made a deeper impact with each new move. Impact that has secured her ubiquity. Happily so, because the 22-year-old fan of Keyshia Cole and Shakira has been working on this pop dream for almost a decade. Critical huzzahs, a Viewer’s Choice win in the International Act category at this year’s BET Awards, and an opening slot on Alicia Keys’ recent world tour are the results of childhood choir practice, a decade’s-worth of studies, plenty of teen performances, learning how to engineer her own recordings, and a 2021 stint on ‘The Voice.’ “People” is approaching a half-billion Spotify streams and its vid has surpassed 200 million views in nine months. Like Ayra Starr, Tiwa Savage, and Tems, the Minneapolis native blends R&B, Afrobeats, soul - calling the intersection of all three “my sweet spot.” Its introspective vibe comes from an honest recollection of a down evening when the singer, who lives with the mood disorder Cyclothymia, had imbibed a bit and dipped out of a social gathering to her studio. There she drove around the Web, found a gorgeous instrumental by Mage The Producer, and let her lyrical talends flow. “I closed my eyes and it just came out really,” she said. “I didn’t necessarily write it. It was exactly how I was feeling.” Check her performances of her hit and the new “angeldemon.” All that poetic sincerity is right up front.
