Kelsey Montanez’s latest release, “Rolling Stone,” powerfully blends rock, blues, and R&B with her sultry vocals, melodic riffs, and an angsty spirit. Released on Nov 24, this track stands out as a coming-of-age anthem.
The song opens with sparkly cymbals sharply slapping and her reverberating vocals enchanting. The sweet, melodic riffs slither alongside Montanez’s deep and even sweeter vocals. Her sultry delivery weaves through the music like an irresistible texture melting onto her angsty sharpness with softness.
In the chorus, the Chicago artist showcases her innate impulses, “Daddy was right, I am a rolling stone/You gotta let me roll.” The refrain, “You gotta let me roll,” becomes the heartbeat of her message. It’s a catchy and resonant declaration that lingers like an earworm. But we realize the singer’s ambition as she recalls how she left home at 17. It’s the ultimate coming-of-age song that showcases how the early 20s are—spontaneous and turbulent for stimulation.
The track carries an emotional weight, with Montanez’s delivery exuding a sense of vulnerability and determination. Her deep timbre adds layers of depth to the lyrics, creating a rich and evocative listening experience. The musical arrangement, with its bluesy undertones and rock-inspired energy, provides the perfect canvas for Montanez’s vocals to shine.
