Toni Soleil Turns The Tables on "Cheated" ft. Luh Kel
Today, Miami singer-songwriter Toni Soleil comes through with her major-label debut, “Cheated". Featuring Trap&B maestro Luh Kel, “Cheated” focuses on the fractures of a flawed relationship, letting both parties speak a blistering truth.
“I been stopped loving you, but I don’t know how to let you go,” Toni sings at the top of the song. She begins with emotional maturity, but once the chorus comes around, it’s apparent she’s fully in her bag: “I’m so damn glad that I cheated on you / I did the shit you do — I pulled a you on you.”
Luh Kel is a perfect match, sing-rapping his way through an impassioned verse that tells the other side of the story. The song captures the embers of a dwindling fire of a relationship that should have long been extinguished—but its survival acts as a smoke signal, warning listeners to not trap themselves in similar situations.
The video is full of early 2000s aesthetics and nostalgia. Toni and Luh Kel playfully trade back and forth in their respective bedrooms on being unfaithful. The epic conclusion sees the pair back together after confronting each other over their misdeeds.
A talented singer-songwriter whose wisdom belies her 19 years of age, Toni Soleil crafts relatable music that begs to be shared across social platforms. Using the raw emotionality of her viral 2016 single, “FEELINGZ,” as a springboard, Toni builds upon themes that feel strikingly contemporary, yet resonant with listeners of any age. With songs like “Cheated” in the bag, Toni has firmly established herself as an artist worth paying attention to as she introduces herself to the world.
