A rare, real trademark talent, Charlize Anne grew up with a fondness for music that was sparked ever since she was a little girl singing along joyfully to some of her favorite artists songs on the radio. She carried with her this insatiable passion, singing in her primary school choir and even fronting a pop rock band in high school. Her debut EP, “From A Loved One,” earned vast critical acclaim with significant radio play across hundreds of global stations and enthusiastic reviews from the music press.
As a singer-songwriter, it is hard to pigeon hole her; she can’t be easily categorized yet meets all expectations with her style, swag, confidence, and charisma. Her big, bold, and soulful voice, marked by raw emotion, is at the core of her musical style; always capturing the essence, narrative, and emotions of her music. If you hadn’t already heard about Charlize Anne, this is the right time to get acquainted with her music; you’ll be glad you did.
Let’s talk about that complete performance in “Perfectly Me”- an enchanting and filmic pop-flavored smash hit with a deeply meaningful message behind the lyrics about accepting and loving who you are and not bowing down to societal pressure, or anyone’s pressure for that matter, in order to look a certain way…because as you will soon come to discover, everyone always has this perfect picture of someone else, and sometimes, due to the pressure of social media, we want to appear a certain way. We have come to be consumed by this misguided ‘perfect’ notion, which truly is a fallacy.
Like the themes it explores, this tune presents a cinematic soundscape and builds on distinct adrenaline-fueled pop beats to stamp itself on a listener’s heart and soul. This is the kind of beat you’d refer to as hypnotic.
On the mic, Anne asserts her authoritative and expressive style; painting a vivid picture with her textbook storytelling approach; her emotive vocals underscoring the raw emotions behind her words, and creating such a transcendental and transportational listening experience for the listener.
For wider appeal, Anne enlisted the help of Montreal-based emcee Annakin Slayd, who delivers a rap masterclass that beautifully complements the overall track.
“Perfectly Me” already has over 21K streams on Spotify alone, which really says something about the level of ingenuity and impact the tune boasts.
