The Chainsmokers – Push My Luck

The Chainsmokers

New Music: Ceara Cavalieri

“This song is about having trust issues due to past experiences. It’s about liking someone who you want to open up to, trust, and give your all too but when they try to get too close you tend to put your walls up and pull away. When you aren’t sure if you can trust someone because in the past when you have let someone in and trusted them, they ended up hurting you.”

New Music: On Man

I can’t remember when we met. I’ve never been good with dates.

At first it wasn’t serious. Like the start of most things, it was just fun. We didn’t really talk about it. We’ve never really talked about it.

Stuff just….happened.

From two rooms to one flat. One day, boxes turned up. And the boxes were emptied on to shelves, and stuff that was on the shelves went into boxes, and those boxes were hidden away somewhere, and suddenly it wasn’t mine anymore. Nothing was. It was ours.

‘Ours’. 

I didn’t think about what that really meant. I don’t think either of us did. 

‘I’ became ‘we’, and we set off on that journey, hand in hand, blindfolds on.

And now we are here. Wherever that is. 

A shared diary, a shared cat, a shared flat, a shared set of friends.

The thing is, when you’ve never planned for any of these things and you haven’t thought about what they meant as they happened, then one day, you wake up and you think. 

You think, do I want this?

You think, is this forever?

You think, what part of myself have I lost?

You think, can I ever get it back?

Or…

Are we UNITED?

Watch: Isabela Merced – PAPI

“Different elements of my Peruvian culture, from the coast to the Amazons, are incorporated into every aspect of my music, wardrobe, dancing, and storytelling of my videos. The ‘Papi’ music video included a modern twist of choreography and wardrobe elements from a Peruvian dance called Marinera, such as the faldas and the pañuelos. The props in the video were inspired from a Peruvian tradition, the Diablada.  I want to introduce everyone to the rich culture of my family’s heritage.”
