West London’s R&B sensation, Kate Stewart, is back with her mesmerizing EP, “You Had To Be There.” This EP showcases Kate’s extraordinary vocal prowess, featuring angelic runs, soaring harmonies, and powerful belting, proving her versatility across a spectrum of genres.
The EP kicks off with the sun-soaked vibes of the lead single, “Never Enough,” setting the stage for an extraordinary musical journey. Tracks like “Everybody Loves Me” demonstrate Kate’s timeless soul influences and vocal acrobatics, while boundary-setting anthems like “Fuck You” reveal her assertive and sassy side.
Kate’s vulnerability shines through on softer tracks like “When It’s Just Me,” and the EP concludes with the slow-burning, late-night love affair of “Me + You.”
Raised on the powerful vocals of legends like Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, and Christina Aguilera, Kate Stewart initially signed with Warner Music as ‘KStewart.’ However, she refused to conform to the label’s attempts to reshape her into a pop-dance artist, ultimately leaving to maintain full creative control as an independent artist.
With “You Had To Be There,” Kate Stewart embarks on a new era of artistic freedom, showcasing her raw talent, celestial vocals, and unwavering confidence. This EP is just the beginning of Kate’s journey as she establishes herself as a musical force in her own unique lane.
