Taya Elle broke the monocultural mould with Latin-laced bilingual soul in Don’t Love You –

With over 72k streams racked up on YouTube, the official music video for Taya Elle’s debut single, Don’t Love You, has instantly resonated with worldwide RnB audiences scouring the airwaves for a voice that breaks through the mediocrity of surface-level emotivity. Don’t Love You traces the contours of tangled heartstrings while reflecting how conflict between the mind and soul within a relationship knocks your sense of self and the world out of kilter.

Every element is a cinematic triumph within the single, which takes the foundations of old school soul and builds a contemporary temple around it, decorated with motifs that break the monocultural mould. The Latin guitars fused with the moody indietronica elements, and the way Elle chameleonically switches through her lyrics bilingually, ensures that this stylistically and culturally fluid track breaks down the barriers to the soul as much as it tears through borders.

Produced by the three-time Grammy-nominated Joe “Capo” Kent, the track is a blueprint for what it means to be raw while holding composure. Taya Elle, a rising artist unafraid to pour vulnerability into bilingual verses, channels her influences (Sade, Sabrina Claudio, Ariana Grande) without losing her individuality in their shadows. From theatre stages to feature spots on Univision and USAWire, she’s steadily building a name on integrity, intimacy, and vocal silk spun from lived experience.

Don’t Love You is now available on all major streaming platforms; for the full experience, stream the music video on YouTube.
