Defying Odds
Raquel Kiaraa
Raquel Kiaraa's album 'Defying Odds' is a statement - an artist owning her power and celebrating the beauty of not only giving life to a child but giving light to herself, her strength, and her music goals. Powerful and commanding, Raquel shows that she will continue to rise through all challenges as she moves through pregnancy and toward becoming a mom for the second time. The title of the album speaks to women's power to transcend the status quo. Time and again, women rise to the occasion proving to themselves and the world that the impossible is possible, and their dreams are alive, and we are achieving them.
The leading single 'Love Got Me Sick' speaks about the complexities we all face around love, the darker side of it anyway. It details how we've loved and lost and that's the normality of love. It also includes how passion is used as a weapon, a tool for manipulation that we're too blind to even see. Love is all at once; terrifying and magical, it's one thing in this world that will never be portrayed by words alone, for its feeling lives in every pocket of our mind, body and soul. Love is powerful.”As pure and honest as ever, her new songs are charged with intense emotions and personal experiences. Raquel brings authenticity to every moment of every song on this album. To name a few, "Lost Without You" and "Love Got Me Sick" are two of the marvelous stand-out tracks on the album to me.
This is a mantra album that I can't get enough of.
