I have always found comfort and inspiration through soul music and I’m just happy to now add some flavour to the scene.
– Nápoles
Neo-soul is in full effect via Scandinavia as Nápoles introduces herself on her first single Slowzy. For Neo-Soul fans, this song captures your soul from the moment the bassline drops and is a joint you just can’t play once.
Slowzy pays homage to vintage neo-soul with Nápoles own twist creating an undeniable hit. In addition, her lyrical and vocal ability to smoothly glide over a laid back rhythmic beat is a wonderful blend.
When speaking on Slowzy and her musical journey thus far Nápoles adds, “I guess the message with the song is how self care and development will lead you to finding your own way in life. Accepting the good and the bad within, but always striving to become a better version of your true self. I have always found comfort and inspiration through soul music and I’m just happy to now add some flavour to the scene.”
From Stockholm, Sweden, Nápoles’ family heritage stems from Cuba and Russia. She always felt destined to make music and her first family visit to Cuba at the age of eight cemented this.
At 15, she was a member of youth gospel choirs in Stockholm where she further developed her craft. She spent many years dancing and exploring different genres ranging from Hip-Hop, Dancehall and House. These influences richly colour her sound on Slowzy.
