As one of the young musicians slowly putting himself out there in the spectrum of pop and R&B, Al Norte released two EPs in 2018, Minutos de Experimento and 18 EP, the first of these saw the artist present himself to the world and the second saw him expand on the sound and ideas he explored in the first project. 18 EP starts with “Calma,” an R&B tune that shows Al Norte displaying his singing and rapping skills as he reflects on love and touches on subjects such as time, patience and forgiveness. Next, “Así Será” continues to demonstrate Al Norte balancing melodies and rapping over a more upbeat sound. Afterwards, “Canela Pasión” provides another passionate pop ballad influenced by today’s trap-inspired R&B. Then, “Ver” is another R&B tune which showcases Al Norte’s singing skills as he once again provides another love-driven track that touches on a variety of subjects such as hope, trust and taking chances. Finally, “Espero No Fallarme” provides Al Norte reflecting on his current personal and relationship goals while looking to grow in a song that can fit perfectly into a coming of age film’s soundtrack. Al Norte’s 18 EP demonstrates the young artist’s growth personally and as a musician as he expands on ideas, goes deeper into the sounds he loves, balances melodies and rapping, and continues to work on his songwriting skills, thereby presenting his continuously growing mainstream potential.
