REALESTK RELEASES HIGHLY ANTICIPATED NEW ALBUM FORGIVE TO FORGET

Uplifting alt-R&B to impressive heights, Toronto-born artist RealestK proudly presents his much-anticipated new album, Forgive To Forget, out now via Standard Projects/ADA.

On Forgive To Forget, RealestK architected a living and breathing sonic world by threading together twelve introspective tracks that blur the line between not just style, but also feelings. He adds, “It captures the process of letting go to grow, navigating grief and pain before reaching realization, acceptance, and ultimately, lessons learned from loss…The last 3 years changed me. The pain, the growth, the silence, it all lives in this project.”

Among many highlights on the album, RealestK’s towering vocals cast a shadow across the dreamscape of “Lifeline,” featuring ethereal strings while he pledges, “I could be everything that he could never be.” Produced by 3x GRAMMY® Award-winner Danny Boy, “Angels” showcases RealestK’s heavenly falsetto that hits high altitudes. On “TOW,” tight electric guitar adds weight to the production, boosting his smooth delivery in the process. Then, there’s the starkly soulful “My Way” and finale “TYT,” which continue to amplify emotions.

As always, RealestK is ushering alt-R&B into another realm. He’s not just making waves—he’s setting the stage for a lasting impact in the world of R&B.

Next up, RealestK will hit the road as direct support to Bryant Barnes on his spring North American headline tour. The tour kicks off tomorrow March 21 in RealestK’s hometown of Toronto, ON, at The Opera House, visits various major markets, including Brooklyn, NY, at Music Hall of Williamsburg on March 26, and concludes on April 4 in Houston, TX, at White Oak Music Hall.
