After releasing her first single last month, newcomer Laica has now shared her first EP, simply titled Forever.

The five-track offering, led by her previously released standout single "Nobody Else But You," features new single "Close to Me," which is yet another example of the 20-year-old singer's mesmerizing skillset, effortlessly putting her in a space with the likes of Sabrina Claudio and Kehlani.

Born in Abu Dhabi and raised in the Philippines, Los Angeles-based Laica may still be a relatively new voice, but her name is one to remember.
