North London-hailing R&B rising star Chel has always harboured a passion for music, igniting her creativity throughout her life and leading to multiple, versatile and talent-brimming EPs and singles along the way. Collaborating with fellow rising stars and garnering attention from the press and media as she continues to refine her sound and visuals, the artist’s multi-faceted creativity is making her a new driving force in the music scene.

Chel’s latest release is the affectionate aphrodisiac ‘Papaya’, with the artist revealing sultry, romantic lyricism and glowing vocal harmonies that add a tinted glow to the warm production. Drenching her love on every moment, Chel lets vocals take the lead, cascading melodies enriched with flowing counters and ad-libs that embody a passionate experience. Dreamy in her delivery, but endlessly confident as she leads the listener by the hand.

The accompanying video echoes these feelings, showcasing a sweltering experience with colourful, vivid visuals that dive between rich blues and glowing oranges. Just as gorgeous as the song itself, the video is a perfect addition and follows similarly impressive recent productions from the artist.

Chel adds, ”I just want to have fun in music and the song just really reflects my energy when I’m into someone, I wanted that feeling of excitement and heightened interest bottled up in a song!”
