As pop efforts go, ‘Isn’t Over’ is absolutely elite. A slice of lush, uplifting and evocative goodness, the record channels the bittersweet messiness of desire, heartbreak and acceptance, all seen through Kate’s vulnerable, honest and relatable songwriting. It’s a punchy effort; Alexa’s does not indulge in strategic poignancy or melancholic lyricism, instead exploring a more positive and hopeful perspective on romantic flings.
It works: ‘Isn’t Over’ delivers a particularly elegant, rich and electrifying listening experience, the perfect match for the upcoming summer season. As the New York-based talent explains: “‘Isn’t Over’ is the space where you’re stuck between moving on and holding on, knowing that closure can’t happen until you stop thinking about them. It’s the struggle of wanting to move forward, but holding on to as much as you can because as long as they’re in your mind, it’s not over.”
Now gearing up for a sophomore EP, expected later this year, Alexa Kate appears fiercer than ever; she’s a global popstar in the making.
