Artist Close-Up: Layton Greene Is About To Tell Her Story
In the time of Ella Mai and Summer Walker, Layton Greene arises in kismet. She is a soft singing, emotion slinging artist that uses her tender vocality to drop truth bombs. Love is not easy, but some men really do make it harder, and her EP, Tell Ya Story, confronts the guys that make you love them just feel bigger without being better.
Sometimes, I wonder if I fall more for the idea of guy or his potential than him. This seems to be the crux throughput tracks, “Never Knew,” “Knives,” and ‘Choices.” Writing the record post-breakup, Tell Ya Story has Layton mulling through the pain, confusion, and bareness that comes from heartbreak. Lyrically, she is questioning how anyone can stop loving her, which it what break-up is and why it hurts. Suddenly, the person you felt you could not live without has revealed that they want to live without you. Such a truth is devastating, but leave it to Layton’s electric infused R&B to ease you through the pain.
Like I said, Layton’s voice is smooth it feels made to be played. She casually emotes her thoughts as if her entire album was recorded as she strolled through beach and her relationships replayed in the sky. Her vocal ease only makes her rhythms feel more infectious. She is, literally, making heartbreak the new bop, and aligning herself as one to watch.
