Maya Amolo’s Sophomore Album, “The Sweetest Time”, Traces The Full Arc Of Love’s Emotional Journey
From the heady rush of infatuation and the warmth of deep connection, to the comfort of stability, the sting of betrayal, and ultimately, the strength found in healing. Maya takes a step away from conventional expressions of sweetness with The Sweetest Time, and moves to explore all the different dimensions: bittersweetness, sweet revenge, decadence, and more. Each track captures a distinct chapter in this cycle, offering a raw, honest reflection of love in all its beauty and complexity. It is a peek into her mind palace, and a manifestation of all her thoughts, flavours and influences; a soundtrack for anyone who’s ever fallen, been broken, and found their way back to themselves.
