Sung in both Spanish and English, “Facil” is a lighthearted yet powerful message about when you find yourself putting in all the effort into a relationship. She finds a new way forward, learning that cutting them off can be surprisingly painless. “Facil” serves as number three of a four part series leading up to her upcoming album, ‘SeVeN’, due out October 23rd.

The Miami born songstress pulls from her Latin roots in this Spanglish project, fusing it with modern R&B and pop rhythms. She was inspired to create this album to solidify a new chapter in her life.

“The last seven years have been a crazy journey in terms of my career,” she explains. “It’s an interesting time in my life. This project really feels like me.”

Not new to the spotlight nor the industry, Dahlia was signed back in 2012 by Vested in Culture via Epic Records after being spotted by one of its A&Rs. Her 2013 debut single and video “Gangsta” depicted the artist as a confident and unabashed woman ready for her moment. Her album Garden was released to critical acclaim, garnering a spot on the Billboard 200 chart. In 2016, she released her EP ‘20s, 50s, 100s’ on Soundcloud featuring standout record “Voices in My Head” and an assortment of visuals with Dahlia flexing her creative and acting ability.

Fusing the sounds of R&B, Afrobeats, Afropop, Reggaeton, and Latin, Dahlia’s impending album ‘SeVeN’ reflects a global, eclectic mix of records. Dahlia notes, “I wanted to bring my own sound into Latin music. I come from two worlds. My parents both being born from Cuba, but then growin up in Miami and listening to American music from hip hop, trap, R&B, soul, pop, reggae, rock– it gave me a love for all types of music. I just wanted to blend all the vibes.”
