Check out masterfully produced artist Monti with her new single "Echo ft Josh Stevens"

 

From her bio, Monti was born into an abusive broken home filled with drugs and alcoholism, Monti was a runaway who dodged foster care systems living off and on the streets, escaping a life of gangs, mental hospitals, group homes, and drug and alcohol abuse. Her turbulent past is brilliantly conveyed in her debut song Echo with moody synths and electro-pop. 

Coming from that sort of past to rock with these vocals and this well-produced of a track is astounding. Echo was produced by composer Josh Stevens (Calvin Harris, LMFAO, The Game). There is clearly pain in the piano rock intro, but the chorus of "we are the voiceless" shows that she truly sings for her fans and is doing her best to help them out and "make it". The chorus is epic and powerful, backing Monti with adults and children fighting through their plight. Monti, for her part, slays it with Sia and Jessie J power in her soaring vocals, coming as a vibrant surprise as the chorus comes back in. As a composition, the break with the R&B style almost sing-songy male comes at a very refreshing point in the song before our girl Monti comes back in and just decimates with her lungs again.

Keep your ear on this girl folks, she's doing good things.
