Evan Fong – breathe

Evan Fong needs no introduction. This hugely popular multi-hyphenate amasses a massive following on social media, thanks to his popular YouTube presence and, of course, his burgeoning music career.

‘breathe’ shows a different side to Fong’s style of work. Despite its upbeat tempo, the track is intentionally raw and unfiltered, creating a sound that hooks the listener throughout. ‘breathe’ feels conflicted – on the one hand, it’s catchy, but on the other, it feels dark.

The song sets the tone for Fong’s next album, which he created while macrodosing on meth and almost dying. This is an important and very brave moment in Fong’s career, and shows an artist unafraid to open himself to the world.
