Elizma latest single, "What's In My Head," is Heartbreak , which tends to extend, sliding into still moments and looping like a song you can't stop listening to. With her new single, rising pop artist Elizma pulls readers into this emotional tug-of-war with a knife-edge honesty. It's an evocative, atmospheric song in which she is torn between a wish to move on and memories that cling to her.
Elizma's phrasing allows smooth transitions between soft, vulnerable statements and powerful, hurtful belts. Her voice glides above an opulent, melancholy production influenced by Billie Eilish, Allie X, and Lana Del Rey, but still all her own. The result is a sound that somehow feels intensely personal and, at the same time, widely relatable.
"What's In My Head" lays raw the emotional struggle of breaking free of a toxic relationship only to remain haunted by the past. "I ended a toxic relationship, but surprisingly, it was harder than I thought to get rid of the idea of getting back to my ex," Elizma says. That kind of bare honesty makes "What's In My Head" feel heavy with emotion, something anyone can relate to if they've been unable to let go.
With "What's In My Head," Elizma shows she's not another feather heading in the wind. She's an artist with a story to share and the talent to make us all feel it. With the arrival of this latest project, nothing can be further from the truth as she continues to forge her path and remind the world that some voices are meant to be heard.
