María Isabel is an LA-based Dominican-American singer making shadowy, swooning pop and R&B that fits in well with the current wave of post-Lana, post-Billie mood pieces but also makes sense in the realm of Jhené Aiko and H.E.R. Tracks like April’s “Buy Your Own Flowers” show off a casually excellent vocal presence against impeccably arranged backdrops.

So does “Baby…,” the lead single from a new EP called i hope you’re very unhappy without me that’s dropping a week from today. This one’s a bit darker and more cavernous — Weeknd-esque, you might say — and you can hear it below.
