OLYMPIA VITALIS RETURNS WITH SOULFUL NEW SINGLE ‘YOUNGER’
West London’s Olympia Vitalis, one of the UK’s most exciting rising soul artists, returns with Younger—a reflective yet refreshing track that longs for the innocence of youth. Co-written with Jonny Lattimer (Rina Sawayama, Joy Crookes) and produced by Dom Valentino (Greentea Peng, Skepta), the single blends breezy guitar melodies, hook-driven pop, and production touches that nod to her Caribbean heritage.
Lyrically, Younger can be interpreted as a song about heartbreak, but for Olympia, it also reflects on the challenges of navigating an unpredictable industry. Her distinctive vocal style—rooted in gospel, jazz, and hip-hop—sets her apart, drawing influence from artists like Amy Winehouse, Aretha Franklin, and Kendrick Lamar.
A rising force in the soul scene, Olympia weaves personal storytelling with broader themes, as seen in last year’s The Rush. Inspired by her family’s Windrush heritage, the track tackled the struggles faced by Afro-Caribbean immigrants, cementing her reputation as an artist unafraid to address complex issues.
With Younger, Olympia continues to carve her space in UK music, combining raw emotion with undeniable groove. As she steps into a new chapter, her voice remains as powerful as ever.
