YLA Howe has released his highly anticipated EP, Chapter 7 (The Flame), marking a significant milestone in his music career. The title "Chapter 7" reflects his seventh year in music, while "The Flame" is what you make of it — a metaphor for the passions and challenges that shape one's journey.

This project has become one of his most cherished releases.
