It’s been some time since I discovered truly outstanding female pop vocals. While exploring the work of Berkshire-based artist TaniA Kyllikki, I listened to her latest single, “I AM Good Enough,” which resonated with me on a personal level. I thought, “WOW! I need to play this on repeat!”
In my reviews, I often begin with discussions about music and singing, reflecting my own background as a musician. Today, however, I’d like to focus on the lyrical theme first. Let me ask you—have you ever experienced abuse in any form? I imagine you may have encountered this at least once. This song serves as both a refuge and a means of escape. It captures the journey of breaking free from past abuse and reclaiming one’s identity, self-worth, and self-esteem.
Musically, it’s now April, and I haven’t encountered any other female vocals as beautiful and powerful as those I found here in 2025. From the very first line, I fell in love with her voice! It’s striking how evident her wide range and singing abilities are. As I listen, I’m captivated by her emotive vocals, which blend a smooth yet powerful quality that I’ve yet to see matched by anyone else this year.
The music here is truly brilliant, and I learned that the backing harmonies are provided by her husband, Rynellton. “I AM Good Enough,” from her forthcoming album “Free-Spirited,” highlights the importance of self-love and the journey of reclaiming one’s identity after facing abuse. TaniA penned the song, while Rynellton handled the production. It’s a fantastic piece and undoubtedly the best contemporary pop track I’ve heard this year. Cheers!
