New music releases in Singapore 2022
New album: Violets Aren’t Blue by Sezairi
It’s evident that everything this reigning Singapore Idol winner touches turns to gold. We’ve played his past albums on loop and this one’s no different. “Violets Aren’t Blue” is an eight-track album that explores the bittersweet realities of temporary love. “Just like how violets aren’t actually blue, love isn’t actually easy. The true strength of love lies in the adversity, the physical labour in the gardening of two people to make each other truly blossom,” Sezairi says.
Listen to “Restless Love”, a love ballad with his signature falsetto vocals and R&B-inspired beats. It’s about the giddy, bashful feeling of love in the era of technology – y’know, like impatiently waiting for a reply from your SO. The single is accompanied by a dreamy music video (above) that’s oh-so-calming to watch.
New singles: Veggie Love and Imaginary Lover by Jesse Who
Bring on the warm fuzzies ‘cos singer-songwriter (and new kid on the block) Jesse Who warms our hearts with sweet, sweet ballads like “Imaginary Lover” and “Veggie Love”. We particularly enjoy the latter. It’s a song about loving your vegetables paired with punny wordplay and adorable visuals in the music video (featured above).
New single: Over Now by Q
You might have seen him in the Singaporean hip-hop duo Hybrid. After spending a decade in hip-hop bands and groups, Q has gone solo. He begins a new chapter in his music career with this new single. “Over Now” is all about creating a fresh and creative perspective on music and life. It has a mix of R&B, lo-fi and hip hop beats, drawing influence from the likes of Frank Ocean, Post Malone and The Weeknd. Read More…
