The hooligan himself, up-and-coming Los Angeles-based artist Kala, has gained recognition for his experimental-dreamy beats, hypnotic vocal flows, and captivating live performances. His latest release is a double single pack titled Falling Back to Earth, in which Kala crafts a cohesive pack of singles that embodies the rollercoaster of emotions that come with being head over heels for someone while in a relationship.

The first track, '2soon2say,' is an alternative hip-hop track that resonates with the universal experience of falling for someone too quickly and becoming emotionally dependent. The song exudes a sense of sweetness and intimacy, capturing the initial excitement of a relationship, regardless of its longevity. The song narrates a poignant tale of profound love and connection, expressing the speaker's overwhelming feelings of dependence on their significant other. Additionally, '2soon2say' evokes a sense of comfort and belongingness while underscoring the significance of the relationship. The sentiments it conveys, including love, devotion, and a desire to stay together, are complemented by themes of vulnerability, understanding, and mutual respect within the relationship.

The title track, “Falling Back to Earth," mixes elements of electronic and rap that offer a glimpse into Kala’s mind with the narration of a story of heartbreak and disillusionment, where he reflects on the reasons for a failed relationship. The lyrics convey feelings of frustration, longing, and a sense of falling from a euphoric state back to reality. Emphasizing emotions of love lost, betrayal, and escapism are lyricized throughout the song, as Kala grapples with memories of happier times contrasted with the harshness of the present. “Falling Back to Earth” captures the bittersweet journey of coming to terms with a broken heart and the inevitable return to a less idealized existence. The almost drunken, hypnotizing flow is symbolic of the confusion and pain of a breakup. The track culminates in a powerful synth outro, symbolic of the beauty of finally moving on, finding peace, and having a deeper self-understanding after months of hardship.
