What better way to start the new week than with a funky and soulful slice of alternative pop, courtesy of American up-and-coming wonderkid Native Son.
As we’ve come to expect from this talent, ‘Pretty Wing – Demo’ serves listeners with an experimental fusion of genres that is boldly unconventional and utterly mesmerising to experience.
Inspired by our occasional tendencies to fall in love with someone who is not good for us, the song’s relatable lyricism contrasts nicely with its sonically distinct production.
“Native Son muses on the liminal spaces we occupy when we develop feelings for people that we can’t, or shouldn’t, have feelings for. ‘Pretty Wing’ is a record for the person pining after their best friend, or hanging-on to the words of a toxic ex.”
Native Son continues to make waves across tastemaker circles, and has become a regular fixture on some of the world’s most prominent playlists. This is one emerging New Yorker that should be on everyone’s radars!
