London-based Swiss-Polish singer-songwriter Emilia Anastazja has a voice that glows. Rich, expressive, and grounded in soulful clarity, her sound has always carried an emotional wisdom beyond genre lines. On her latest release, “Wait a Minute,” Emilia steps forward with a message that feels both deeply personal and universally resonant: own your life, choose your path, and stop shrinking for anyone.
“Wait a Minute” is the focus track of her EP Purple to Blue, and it captures exactly what makes Emilia such a rare and compelling artist. The production is warm, clean, and timeless, blending her influences, from Sade’s soft sophistication to Cleo Sol’s modern soulfulness, without ever leaning into imitation. Emilia carves out her space, where R&B warmth, jazz nuance, and singer-songwriter intimacy coexist seamlessly.
Emilia reminds herself and the listener that independence is simply the moment you choose your truth over expectations. Her delivery is confident yet gentle, like someone stepping into sunlight after years of standing in the doorway. As the EP unfolds thematically around memory, family, and the enduring parts of self, “Wait a Minute” serves as its emotional anchor. It’s the moment of clarity, the line in the sand, the breath you take before saying, “I’m ready to live this my way.” “Wait a Minute” not only showcases her artistry but also marks a defining moment in her evolution: a step into full self-possession, delivered with elegance, soul, and unwavering authenticity.
