Ava Carmont Makes “To be” A Raw, Glowing, And Powerful Pop Moment Of Vulnerability, Survival, And Controlled Chaos.


Ava Carmont delves into personal experience and really gets raw with “To be.”

The opening acoustic guitar notes on “To be” are crisp with a gritty sound and bring an exciting feel to this song. The beats that drive the song's undercurrent and a reverse-sounding synth effect perfectly wrap around Ava Carmont's vocals, making her already unique and captivating voice even more interesting. Within her soft and high tone is a sultry and beautiful sound that stands out. With gentle twists in her delivery and a flow that is everything from slow to dragging in the most beautiful but dramatic way, she makes her way into your mind and you don't want her to leave.


The pointed moments in her declarative tone enter, and this method turns into a glowing, powerful gliding sensation, and we realized she has no boundaries in her toolbox of talent.

As we break down the lyrics, it's apparent there is much more than that. It's an emotional breaking point and vulnerable reveal that she's even worried about making it to 25!? Whoa! This gets deep and intense quickly, and that raises the stakes. Now we are enticed even more. As this message within the song becomes obvious, Ava Carmont chooses another new method to display her emotions. The music becomes frenzied and overwhelming, feeling like controlled chaos, with her vocals clashing and overlapping, transferring this sensation to our minds and really "placing" our minds into hers.The song's message is now not just in the lyrics but also the engineering, and this was a terrific way to use musical imagery to lock in that connection with the listener.



Ava Carmont turns "To be" into a breathtaking, emotionally fearless triumph that transforms vulnerability, chaos, and survival into unforgettable art.


This was the pinnacle of the song, and connecting these emotions with her was a great way to turn a really great pop song with a terrific beat into so much more. It's now a world we understand and feel a part of.


Now, after going back in for repeated listens, the whole experience felt like a hell yeah moment. Ava Carmont survived it, and so did we.


Now we want to know, when can we see this and sing along and let that anger and frustration out?! We are already cheering for and wanting to sing along with her so we can heal together. Music makes us feel things, but Ava Carmont created a powerful way to cope and heal, and if this is the medicine, we're going to keep taking it.
