Léa Sen, known for her collaborations with Joy O, Wu-Lu, and Speakers Corner Quartet, presents a soft-touch, atmospheric R&B experience in her latest EP, “You Of Now, Pt. 2.” Drawing comparisons to artists like FKA Twigs, Clara La San, and Jessy Lanza, Sen delves into heavy yet relatable themes, including inner conflicts, desires, and self-acceptance. With her multifaceted skills as a guitarist, singer-songwriter, producer, and mixer, Sen showcases a diverse sonic palette throughout this collection of deeply complex tracks.
Utilizing minimalistic arrangements, Sen combines delicate chord progressions with atmospheric synths, creating an atmosphere of tranquility and introspection. Standout songs like “Dragonfly ʚĭɞ” and “Luv Him (about u)” fearlessly delve into authentic experiences, fearlessly confronting the darker aspects of life and the complexities of Sen’s own mind. Reflecting on the EP, Sen shares, “I was just a bit more honest with myself about who I am and how flawed I am. But no matter how flawed I am, I still care for myself.”
“You Of Now, Pt. 2” follows the critically acclaimed “You Of Now, Pt. 1” released last year, receiving praise from publications such as FADER, The Guardian, Crack Magazine, Dummy, Notion, and The Independent. Sen has garnered radio support from BBC 6Music, Radio 1, 1Xtra, and Apple Music 1. Additionally, she has been nominated as an AIM Award One To Watch in association with BBC Introducing.
Léa Sen’s “You Of Now, Pt. 2” EP represents an emotionally resilient journey, blending introspective lyricism with atmospheric R&B soundscape, establishing her as an artist with a unique voice and perspective.
