Influenced by artists such as Prince, Joss Stone, and James Blake, Meresha received critical acclaim for her debut release, &#8216;New Revolution&#8217;, in 2015. Meresha is now back with her followup track, &#8216;My Love Has Come&#8217;.<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8216;My Love Has Come&#8217; channels a different vibe from &#8216;New Revolution&#8217;, this time finding her inspiration on a more personal level, with her honestly and poignantly putting on display her innermost thoughts. Recently featured on the iTunes New Pop Music section, &#8216;My Love Has Come&#8217; grooves with a solid electro-soul beat, which provides\u00a0the perfect canvas for Meresha&#8217;s angelic vocals. The accompanying video has taken off on an international scale, with Next Big Sound already rating her a global viral artist, based on her breakout social media explosion.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"21686\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/2016\/07\/meresha-my-love-has-come\/meresha-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Meresha-2.jpg?fit=1600%2C1200&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1600,1200\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-title=\"Meresha 2\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Meresha-2.jpg?fit=640%2C480&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-21686\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/essentiallypop.com\/epop\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Meresha-2.jpg?resize=640%2C480&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Meresha 2\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The video finds Meresha secluded in a variety of confines, whether it be a cage or something more metaphorical. As she grapples through trying to escape, she soon realises that the only person who can free her from her imprisonment is herself. A slick split screen edit brings Meresha face to face with herself for the pivotal moment, which a variety of bold, pastel colours soak the screen one at a time. The message is hammered home in this brilliant display of video work, with Meresha carrying the clip with her captivating presence in front of the camera.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For further information about Meresha, check out her <a href=\"http:\/\/www.meresha.com\" target=\"_blank\">official website<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Mereshas\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/meresha.tumblr.com\" target=\"_blank\">Tumblr<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Mereshas\/\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/mereshas\/\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/meresha\" target=\"_blank\">Soundcloud<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/mereshas\" target=\"_blank\">YouTube<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/+Meresha\" target=\"_blank\">Google Plus<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"epyt-video-wrapper\">\n<div  style=\"display: block; margin: 0px auto;\"  id=\"_ytid_45561\"  width=\"640\" height=\"360\"  data-origwidth=\"640\" data-origheight=\"360\"  data-relstop=\"1\" data-facadesrc=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-fGCx9l-_Io?enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/essentiallypop.com&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=1&#038;controls=1&#038;disablekb=0&#038;color=red&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__ epyt-facade epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" data-epautoplay=\"1\" ><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-spai-excluded=\"true\" class=\"epyt-facade-poster skip-lazy\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"MERESHA \/\/ MY LOVE HAS COME  (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO)\"  src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/-fGCx9l-_Io\/maxresdefault.jpg?w=640&#038;ssl=1\"  \/><button class=\"epyt-facade-play\" aria-label=\"Play\"><svg data-no-lazy=\"1\" height=\"100%\" version=\"1.1\" viewBox=\"0 0 68 48\" width=\"100%\"><path class=\"ytp-large-play-button-bg\" d=\"M66.52,7.74c-0.78-2.93-2.49-5.41-5.42-6.19C55.79,.13,34,0,34,0S12.21,.13,6.9,1.55 C3.97,2.33,2.27,4.81,1.48,7.74C0.06,13.05,0,24,0,24s0.06,10.95,1.48,16.26c0.78,2.93,2.49,5.41,5.42,6.19 C12.21,47.87,34,48,34,48s21.79-0.13,27.1-1.55c2.93-0.78,4.64-3.26,5.42-6.19C67.94,34.95,68,24,68,24S67.94,13.05,66.52,7.74z\" fill=\"#f00\"><\/path><path d=\"M 45,24 27,14 27,34\" fill=\"#fff\"><\/path><\/svg><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Born and raised in Warsaw, Poland, Meresha moved to the US with her family with only one thing in mind: stardom.
