Noah Kahlil Turns Toxic Sweetness Into Sonic Gold on Hypnotic Heartbreak Island

Noah Kahlil is a multi-faceted artist hailing from Los Angeles. With influences ranging from Frank Ocean’s introspective vulnerability to The Weeknd’s moody and darker storytelling, Noah isn't so much about sticking in one lane. He's more interested in chasing whatever sound matches the emotion he’s trying to untangle, and with a genre-agnostic storyteller this compelling, we’re all ears.

Heartbreak Island is Kahlil's latest offering, and it's a bold and hypnotic piece of music that cuts deeper than your average breakup song. Another genre-defying and atmospheric gem, the fleeting earworm shows up, sucks you in, and then leaves you wanting more of its rich and dreamy afterglow.

Reflecting on the meaning behind his new single, Noah says that he "wanted to expose how emotional manipulation is often hidden behind politeness, charm, and self-victimization". 

He goes on to mention that Heartbreak Island is about accountability, and "the ways we protect toxic behaviours with soft language".

An absolute peach from start to finish, Noah Kahlil's Heartbreak Island showcases a thoughtful and sharp-witted artist. It's no surprise his fanbase is rapidly growing, and we can't wait to hear what he gets up to next!
