ELFI IS BACK AND SHE’S SERVING HEARTBREAK WITH A SIDE OF HELL YES

Okay, picture this: you walk into a restaurant you swore you were done with, your ex’s ghost does a dramatic entrance in your mind, and suddenly you realise…
“Wait. I literally dodged a missile.”
That’s the exact lightning-bolt moment behind Elfi’s brand-new single “be careful what you wish for”. And instead of crying about it, she turned it into a sparkly, shout-it-from-the-rooftops banger you can dance yourself clean to.
This song is for:
✨ Anyone who once begged the universe for someone who turned out… not great
✨ Anyone whose rose-coloured glasses finally shattered (thank GOD)
✨ Anyone ready to dance their way out of a questionable decisions era
Born in the Netherlands, living in London, and thriving everywhere in between, Elfi takes that “oops-I-wanted-the-wrong-person” feeling and transforms it into full-blown pop catharsis. The track comes straight from her upcoming EP 11.11 — a project crafted between Los Angeles, London, and Amsterdam and sprinkled with magic at London’s iconic Metropolis Studios.
She finished this song in LA with her ride-or-die producer John McLucas, who helped turn the moment of clarity into a technicolour, hands-in-the-air “thank you universe for the plot twist” anthem.
And if you’ve ever been to an Elfi show, you know she doesn’t just perform — she converts entire rooms into glittering ecosystems of shared feelings, loud singing, and chaotic joy. From sold-out London shows to Amsterdam highs, she brings that same energy straight into this track.
“be careful what you wish for” isn’t just a breakup song.
It’s your new favourite victory lap.
It’s closure with confetti.
It’s moving on… but make it gorgeous.
Two years ago, Naomi Aguilera walked onto my radar with EGO, an infectious soulful pop debut that made it impossible not to move. Fast forward to her debut EP Mosaïques, and it was clear she wasn’t just passing through. Personal, colorful, rooted in her Spanish heritage & Brussels upbringing, it even earned her a spot as Apple Music Benelux’s Up Next artist!
Now she’s back with BB ILY, marking the start of a new era. The bilingual single — French and English — is built around one of the most universal human experiences: that special connection that doesn’t need translation. Where EGO invited you to forget your ex on the dancefloor, BB ILY pulls you somewhere more intimate: with sultry beats courtesy of Turana, it’s a dance where gestures, whispers, sighs and the sound of a voice matters more than the words that come out of it… It’s sensual, a little mystical, and entirely her own.
First taste of Naomi Aguilera’s upcoming project Ojalá, due in 2027, it feels effortlessly catchy. This is the kind of track that casts its spell quietly, with interesting and unexpected rhythmic shifts in the verses, and a delicious chorus that lodges itself in your head before you even notice. By the time you do, it’s too late. But you won’t find me complaining about it!
