“Hearing the beats mixed with the vocals made such a difference,” she adds. The lively rhythm complements the song’s message about a love that provides comfort and a sense of belonging, whether it’s romantic or platonic. It’s about those people who make you forget your flaws and feel truly seen and accepted.” she says.
