Two-time award-winning artist Crystal Starr, hailed as “The Girl with the Golden Voice” by The Source, continues her musical journey with the release of her hit single “Too Late,” which has climbed to the iTunes top 14. Her previous track, “Good Times,” reached #3 on the UK Commercial Pop charts in 2023. Crystal Starr has headlined major events like the Electric Forest Festival, performing alongside icons like Ariana Grande, Lady Gaga, and Stevie Wonder. In addition to her career as a songwriter and producer, Crystal Starr is also a philanthropist, founding Little Voices, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting inner-city youth. Her highly anticipated album Pop Starr features Grammy-nominated producers and the powerful single “Too Late.”
In the acoustic version of her single “Don’t Waste the Night,” Crystal Starr reveals a more personal side of her artistry. Stripping away the upbeat production, she allows her raw vocals and a soft piano arrangement to take center stage, drawing listeners into the emotional core of the song. Following the success of “Too Late,” which has garnered over 500K views, Crystal Starr continues to solidify her presence in the music industry while also using her platform to nurture new talent through Little Voices.
In her latest lyrics, Crystal Starr explores themes of frustration and independence. Lines like “You keep saying the thing, but I can see right through you” reflect the speaker’s weariness of empty promises, while the chorus “Don’t miss the plane I’m taking off / Stay on the ground if you want to, I’m flying far” symbolizes a decisive move toward independence and personal growth. The metaphor of flying represents a journey of self-empowerment, as the speaker makes it clear they won’t wait forever for someone to step up. It’s a powerful statement about choosing to prioritize one’s own path when faced with uncertainty.
