In February 2022 Alexa released her fifth single, 'Need to know', which was written during the pandemic on a day she questioned what the future would bring on a career in music. She confronted the emotions and thoughts of her future as she wrote down the lyrics that reflected the overwhelming feeling and desperation to "need to know" the answers at that moment. The song has surpassed 25,000 streams and has been placed on 40+ playlists. The song moves through her internal monologue covering the thoughts she had that day she felt so “broken-faded”, confused and "caught up in her headspace”. She asked herself if she was a disappointment to those around her, and if she was trying her best. During the pandemic the “sound of silence filled the air”, bringing a feeling of “emptiness in the atmosphere”. 'I need to Know' dominates each chorus with emotion and an urgency to have the answer. Alexa’s fluid sultry voice pulls you in a wraps itself around you wishing you could reach out and help provide the answers. The song was recently featured in the Brainz Magazine.

Her single, "Sleep all day", delves into the frustrations and emotions culminating from a relationship split, and how it floods you with memories you can't shake. You feel the tossing and turning through the relationship phases, and the need to escape the psychological hoops, and face a future absent of crushing turmoil. The power pop sing's hook loaded chorus, "I been sleeping all day, and I'm crying all night cause I can't do anything right." provides the visual and emotions of the anguish striking.

"Sleep all Day", is flavored with a contemporary pop aroma. You know after one listen it is destined for strong radio play and high streaming activity.-Performers on the Go, LLC

Her 2021 single “10 Reasons Why” is a sumptuously accomplished and mature track which slots seamlessly into Alexa Cabral’s flawless flow of pop releases since 2018’s “Summertime” single. Beyond her ability to faithfully translate the permeating zeitgeist of her narrative, what is most striking about the new single, is the internal logic, consistency and density of the songwriting. This track is not a fragmentary timeline of ideas and thoughts but an uncompromising and obsessively fine-tuned project that is so relatable.

There is a beguiling laser focus that rips through the entire track; from the impressionistic lyrical delivery that oscillates with a blue-printed rhythmic certainty – starting quietly, but quickly building into an assured and granular production which purifies itself throughout the record with the choppy hi-hats and washed-out synths. Above it all, Alexa Cabral’s crystal clear voice resonates with emotional nuance as she unfolds her 10 reasons why.-Jamspere (Click to read full review)
