“nobody else” is about breaking the illusion that being a pretty girl means you have endless options in love. It explores the loneliness that comes from being admired from afar but rarely approached because people are too intimidated. At its heart, the song is a love letter to my boyfriend – a reminder that even if the world thought I could have anyone, I’d still choose him.”
Izabel
THE RELEASE
London-based R&B singer Izabel returns with her new single “nobody else”, following the bossa-tinged “hit & run” which received wide DSP support, including on Spotify’s Fresh Finds R&B.
Produced by Jofis, “nobody else” dives into the deep and vulnerable side of contemporary r&b. The track opens with a soulful guitar and airy synths before a punchy beat lifts the second half, mirroring the emotional build of the lyrics.
Thematically, Izabel explores themes of beauty, loneliness, and real love – challenging the illusion that being admired means having endless options. Beneath the shimmering production lies a heartfelt confession of gratitude and emotional security; an ode to the true love she’s found.
Over the past year, Izabel has been building her presence on London’s live scene, performing at venues like Hootananny Brixton and Colours Hoxton, alongside artists like Asher Roth, Tia Gordon, Akemi Fox, and Loie. With “nobody else,” she continues to carve her place as one of the most exciting new voices in the UK’s r&b scene.
