Laeland Offers Up Some “AFTER CARE”

A captivating alternative R&B tune that’s ready to tug at your heart.

Mississippi-born musical creative Laeland is a multi-talented singer-songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist. With an undeniable passion for his work, the artist “plucks thoughts, memories, and emotions from his handwritten journals or voice memos and grafts them to bedroom-crafted beats laced with soft acoustic guitar and warm piano.” His long-standing love for music began when he was just five years old—from “performing for his family to showing classmates how to sing on-pitch.” Eventually, the young creative’s talent for music led him to be discovered by the artist Snøw. In 2019, Laeland “made waves” with his single “I’m inlove but…” reaching over 18.7 million streams on Spotify. Near the end of 2022, the singer signed with Nettwerk and later released his first album with the music group. Laeland’s latest drop is the alternative R&B single “AFTER CARE” and its accompanying official visualizer.

With a melodic blend of easygoing instrumentals and emotive tones, “AFTER CARE” provides the perfect soothing R&B backdrop that feels wonderfully lush and beautifully complements the tune’s raw and relatable narrative. Lyrics like “Everything about you is new to me, Loving you is like a eulogy” and “I hate and love the things you do to me, I’m more patient than I used to be” hear the artist vulnerably reflect on relationships, connection, and the whirlwind of emotions that come with being in love. Fueled by its soulful vocals and its ear-pleasing, genre-fusion soundscape, Laeland gifts us with a captivating alternative R&B tune that’s ready to tug at your heart. So press play and give yourself some “AFTER CARE.”
