In this episode, I had the honor of sitting down with Kyle Alessandro, an incredibly talented young artist representing Norway at this year’s Eurovision competition. From earning the golden buzzer at just ten years old to writing powerful songs inspired by his mother’s battle with cancer, Kyle's journey is a testament to resilience, love, and pure creative energy. His positivity, passion, and deep emotional intelligence left a huge impression on me, and I can't wait for you to hear the special connection we shared—and the remix we created together for his beautiful song “Lighter.”My remix of "Lighter" comes out Friday May 9th, listen here:https://theweeklybeat.ffm.to/songsplaylistWe're releasing a new episode and song EVERY SINGLE WEEK so be sure to subscribe and join this ambitious journey of music-making and storytelling!
