Alessia Caracciolo, conocida mundialmente como Alessia Cara, nació el 11 de julio de 1996 en Brampton, Ontario, Canadá. Hija de inmigrantes italianos, creció en una familia que valoraba profundamente la música y las artes. Desde temprana edad, Alessia mostró un interés y talento innato para la música. Aprendió a tocar la guitarra de forma autodidacta a los 10 años y comenzó a publicar versiones de canciones populares en YouTube a los 13.
Sus versiones subidas a YouTube llamaron la atención por su tonalidad única y su habilidad para interpretar emociones genuinas. Esta visibilidad en internet la llevó a firmar con EP Entertainment y Def Jam Recordings en 2014. Lo que inicialmente comenzó como un pasatiempo pronto se convertiría en una carrera musical prometedora.
En abril de 2015, Alessia Cara lanzó su sencillo debut, «Here». La canción, inspirada en una experiencia personal en una fiesta donde no se sentía a gusto, fue un éxito inmediato. Su letra sincera y su honestidad brutal resonaron con una audiencia que buscaba autenticidad en la música pop. La canción no solo escaló rápidamente en las listas de popularidad, sino que también fue aclamada por la crítica, obteniendo elogios de medios como Rolling Stone y Spin.
El 13 de noviembre de 2015, Alessia lanzó su primer álbum de estudio «Know-It-All». Con éxitos como «Seventeen», «Scars to Your Beautiful» y, por supuesto, «Here», el álbum consolidó su posición en

Poured out my heart last night
Wrote a song with some good lines
I spill my feelings on you sometimes
But at least you know
Had a one-way talk with your voicemail
Called out, but you weren't there and
Now you're back and it's not fair
What you're doing
You say you thought about me all along
(Say you thought about me)
But never said a thing till I was gone (Ah)
How am I supposed to know what's on your mind?
I don't have a crystal ball
I can't see through your walls
You should know better
How am I supposed to know what's on your mind?
I'm tired of cracking codes
If you want me, let me know
You should know better
Ah, better
You bottle it up like fine wine
But don't rely on the grapevine
I always fall for the shy guy
What was I expecting?
So lay it all out on the table
You felt it, but you never said so
Even Juliet and Romeo couldn't outsmart communication
If you don't wanna talk, that's fine by me
(You don't want to talk, that's fine, fine by me)
But don't get mad when I get up and leave (Ah)
How am I supposed to know what's on your mind?
I don't have a crystal ball
I can't see through your walls
You should know better
How am I supposed to know what's on your mind?
I'm tired of cracking codes
If you want me let me know
You should know better
Ah, better
Speak now or forever hold your tongue
(You should know better, you should know better)
Speak now or forever hold your tongue
(You should know better, you should know better)
How am I supposed to know what's on your mind?
I don't have a crystal ball (Crystal ball)
I can't see through your walls
You should know better
How am I supposed to know what's on your mind?
I'm tired of cracking codes (Yeah)
If you want me let me know
You should know better
Ah, better (No, no, no, no, no, no, eh)
You should know better
You should know better
Speak now or forever, yeah
You should know better
You should know better
