Sofie Elezaj, the independent pop artist recognized for her genre-defying sound and steadfast artistic vision, has been named a finalist in America’s Next Top Hitmaker competition. The contest offers a significant opportunity for Elezaj to perform at the Global Citizen Festival in New York City, as well as a $50,000 prize and a feature in Rolling Stone magazine.
Born in Stockholm and raised in New York, Elezaj has built a career marked by her commitment to creative freedom and cultural authenticity. Her music blends polished pop elements with soulful lyricism and vulnerability. Elezaj’s most recent album, Diamonds, produced by Adam Buckingham at Roth Händle Studios in Stockholm, explores themes of resilience, self-discovery, and love, reflecting her personal and artistic journey.
Elezaj’s work has earned her critical acclaim, including a Grammy nomination, while her independent approach to music production and distribution underscores her commitment to retaining full artistic control. Now, her career is poised to take a further step forward through her participation in America’s Next Top Hitmaker.
Voting for the competition opens May 27th at 10 AM PDT. The winner will receive industry exposure, the monetary prize, and the chance to perform on a globally recognized platform that highlights artists contributing to social and cultural change.

“Performing at the Global Citizen Festival would be a transformative moment in my career,” Elezaj said. “It’s more than a stage — it’s a global platform to inspire, to connect, and to elevate voices that matter.”
Elezaj’s music is influenced by boundary-pushing artists known for their storytelling and authenticity. She has expressed her intent to reinvest any winnings back into her career, supporting upcoming artists while maintaining her independent path.
“I’m not here to fit a mold,” Elezaj stated. “I’m here to remind people that staying true to yourself is the most radical thing an artist can do.”
As Elezaj competes for the title, she represents a broader movement of independent artists advocating for creative autonomy and diversity within the music industry. Her journey continues to attract attention from fans and industry professionals alike.
Supporters can vote for Sofie Elezaj starting May 27th and follow her progress through her official streaming platforms and social media channels.
