Jayadi Explores the Chaos of Toxic Love on New Single ‘SORAYA’s ECHO’

Jayadi’s latest release, “SORAYA’s ECHO”, strips toxic love down to its core. The Ghanaian alte and R&B singer captures the emotional spiral of knowing better but staying anyway.
The pop-funk inspired track blends sleek production with raw storytelling. Jayadi confronts the cycle of confusion and desire, where lust blurs logic, and walking away feels impossible.
“It’s about the thrill fading, but something still pulling you back,” he shares. The song doesn’t offer closure. Instead, it sits in the discomfort of being aware yet stuck.
“SORAYA’s ECHO” marks another bold step in Jayadi’s experimental sound, which is introspective, honest, and emotionally charged.

Stephan Folkes Shines on Reflective New Single ‘It’s All Within Time (Travelling Through the Stars)’

Stephan Folkes returns with a transcendent new release, ‘It’s All Within Time (Travelling Through the Stars)’, and it’s clear the London-based artist is charting his own course through the cosmos of contemporary music. Following the critical success of his debut single ‘Say It Like You Mean It’, Stephan’s latest offering is a richly layered, genre-defying meditation on time, adversity, and personal growth.
A self-described “Visionist” and “King of Fantasy,” Folkes approaches music with a rare kind of fearlessness. His newest single doesn’t chase trends—it questions them. From the very first note, Stephan draws listeners into a reflective space, encouraging them to consider the lessons learned from life’s most difficult moments.
“Music should be a space for self-reflection,” Stephan says, and ‘It’s All Within Time’ lives up to that mission. Carried by his velvety vocals—reminiscent of George Michael at his most heartfelt—Stephan weaves a soundscape that blends soft rock, R&B, jazz, funk, and ambient pop with effortless finesse. The result is a sound that’s both nostalgic and forward-thinking, dreamy yet grounded.
Lyrically, the track urges listeners to embrace their journey in its entirety. It’s not just about where you’re going—it’s about how you’ve grown through the fire. There’s something deeply empowering in that message, and Stephan delivers it with authenticity and grace.
Born and raised in Leytonstone, East London, Stephan’s music is deeply rooted in personal experience. Surviving a life-threatening hospitalization at five and a near-drowning in his youth, he emerged with a profound sense of purpose—one that pulses through every word and every chord. Since beginning his journey in music at just 11, he’s grown into a full-fledged artist, working alongside industry talents like Nick Michaels (Bethnal) and producer Phil Curran.
With a strong presence online and plans to bring his message to the stage across the UK, ‘It’s All Within Time (Travelling Through the Stars)’ marks a powerful new chapter for Stephan Folkes. It’s not just a song—it’s a reminder to honour your past, trust the timing of your life, and never be afraid to walk your own path.
