Alfreda reveals debut single, “Died To Myself” – Aipate

The first ever single from Alfreda Gerald, who is an American singer professionally known as Alfreda, is a soulful ballad named “Died to Myself”.

The uplifting R&B/soul song was released on Waring Records. With gospel music influences, and characterized by live strings and powerful vocals, “Died to Myself” is about surrender, transformation, and letting go of ego to truly live.

“When I first read the lyrics to ‘Died to Myself,’ I felt like I was staring into a mirror. It spoke to parts of my journey I don’t always talk about—learning to release pride, confront pain, and open myself to something greater. I didn’t want to just sing it—I wanted to feel it, word for word. This song demanded everything from me, and I gave it everything I had,” Alfreda says.

I enjoyed the listening experience, the back-to-back repeats and all. Remember, Alfreda is just getting started. Follow her on Spotify page for more music.
