Part-Algerian part-Palestinian artist Saint Levant has just released the deluxe edition of Love Letters, his most recent body of work originally unveiled in February. Adding four more songs to the EP’s track-list — three of which are featurings — the sonic extension broadens the project’s scope while keeping its initial spirit intact, providing listeners, and most importantly fans, with new music that feels like a natural continuation rather than an afterthought.
Joined by Tunisian rapper Nordo, Algerian singer Babylon, and Mahraganat rising star Fares Sokkar, the EP finds new life, reframed as a richer artistic statement than it was before.
Since its initial release, Love Letters has held a steady position on the charts, driven by one its hit singles Kalamantina — a collaboration with Egyptian lyricist Marwan Moussa — and amplified by a Huda Beauty partnership that introduced a tangerine-flavored lip balm as accompanying merchandise. With these new additions, the project is poised to tighten its grip on regional and global rankings and maybe, who knows, climb even higher than it already has so far.
For the re-release, the EP’s cover art got a subtle revamp. While the original version showed Saint Levant from behind, his hair sleek and combed, with a red heart painted on the left hand side of his head against a deep crimson backdrop, in the new version, the composition remains almost the same, but both the heart and background shifted from red to a soft pink.
Out now on all streaming platforms, if anyone’s looking to end summer season on the right note (pun intended), Saint Levant has you covered.
