‘Something From Nothing' , a relatable song on womanhood and strong motherly figures inspired by the immigrant story. Taken from her forthcoming debut album titled ELIZABETH which she co-produced with Adrian X (Drake, The Weeknd, Doc McKinney), ’Something From Nothing’ follows LOKRE’s June single ’Sun Don’t Set’ her first release in 2 years which acted as the springboard for her musical journey that is transformative, decadent and refuses to be ignored.

On the new single, LOKRE says: "‘Sun Don’t Set’ is an affirmation to press on in the face of self-doubt. The lyrics serve as a much needed reminder, a divine gift even, to encourage me to see the big picture and the temporary nature of pain. No matter how grey the sky, I can trust that the sun is there… even if I can’t see it. That’s the kind of faith I think life demands.” The single is encapsulated into a live performance directed by long-time collaborator and choreographer Caroline Torti filmed in the stunning countryside outside Toronto.

LOKRE (pronounced lock-ree) has been fiercely paving the path for her undeniable talent. Her sound was born out of the collision between her Indo-Trinidadian and Irish sonic mosaic and eclectic influences such as Sade, Alicia Keys and Nelly Furtado. Her talents have attracted a noteworthy list of collaborators including MNEK, Brian West, Ryan Ashley, Yetibeats, Adam Messinger, and Curtis Richardson to name a few.

Outside of music, LOKRE's passions lie in: poetry, meditation, wellness, yoga, mental health (she launched & produced a series with Jack.org called DeMystified), and streetwear/sneaker culture.
