Boston native E-Los is putting the finishing touches on his upcoming EP Casanova , collaborating with hip-hop and R&B artist Elhae on the evocative track “Scarlett’s Poetry.” Produced by Imregii, the song blends the soulful essence of both genres with a nostalgic undertone in every note. “This song is about admitting my mistakes and facing the things I’ve let down. I’m not proud of it, but it’s my truth. I still hold on to hope, but I won’t make her wait – It’s not fair. I need to fix myself first, pursue my career, and face my demons. I guess we could have done that under different circumstances, but I’m not making excuses. Pray. If you’ve ever had to fight for someone you love—or fight with yourself—you’ll feel this way.
Following earlier releases such as “Unloyal” and “Searching,” this collaboration further showcases E-Los’ ability to infuse raw emotion into music. E-Los, a former basketball player turned recording artist, closed out 2024 with a triumphant homecoming show at the Rockwell Theater, connecting with fans through his introspective lyrics and heartfelt performance They established contact. He also made a splash with his stellar improv performances on COMPLEX’s On The Radar and Shade 45’s “The Punchline Academy,” cementing his status as one of Boston’s most promising talents. His music delves into themes of personal growth, mental health, and resilience, creating a sound that is both intimate and relatable.
Now, E-Los is gearing up to release Casanova , a project that delves into the inner struggles of longing for love and self-acceptance. In each song, he invites listeners to join him on a journey that balances vulnerability with a powerful determination to grow and evolve.

Hope they can cure this guy
