Dela Kay - Saving Face
Alt-Pop sensation Dela Kay has released her latest single, “Saving Face,” today. Marking her fourth single release from her upcoming EP, slated for release in the coming months, “Saving Face” promises a rollercoaster ride of upbeat rhythms and cheeky lyrics.
“"Saving Face" is about that person in your life getting their karma. Once they've dug their own grave of lies or BS, there's no way they're getting out of it (aka no way they're "Saving Face")” says Dela. Crafted in collaboration with her trusted producer and co-writer Stefano Pigliapoco, along with co-writer Nick Cozine, the song packs a
punch with its infectious energy and in-your-face attitude. Drawing inspiration from pop-punk influences, "Saving Face" is seamlessly infused with that signature Dela Kay edge.
The creative process behind "Saving Face" was a whirlwind of excitement and synergy. "We got together and immediately vibed off each other's energy," shared Dela. "The melodies flowed effortlessly, and before we knew it, the lyrics fell into place." Dela Kay is ecstatic about her latest release, expressing her anticipation for fans to experience the track's infectious energy firsthand. "This song is a testament to embracing authenticity and standing firm in the face of adversity," she exclaimed. "Super excited about this song and can't wait for my fans to hear it!"

In 2014, her electro-pop style began to emerge through a collaboration with Grammy-winning

Named by Earmilk as an artist who was gifted “with a rich, distinctive vocal style” for her 2018 release of “Make You Mine,” Dela Kay went on to continue releasing singles and garnering hundreds of thousands of streams. In 2019 Dela Kay released “All My Love” through Sony Music, which ended up charting 49 on the top 150 global artist charts for Digital Radio Tracker as well as in the top ten for the Top Independent Charts. The release of “Think About You” shortly followed, which ended up becoming Dela’s highest-streamed song to date with almost 800k streams and counting. After a brief hiatus, Dela Kay marked her return by debuting a new, more alternative sound in 2021 with the release of “The Worst Part,” via Wonderland Magazine.
