When the things we had avoided turns into something we can't help but love, it's hard to admit that this new reality is everything we had needed with that special someone. Late night drinks extend to two coffees shared in the morning, and the walls we've put up have started to crumble as we have found someone we can trust. We start treading in deep waters, but the trust we have in that special someone keeps us at the surface. Yetep and Trella opens the door to what we thought we had hated turned into a reality we have started to love. When the night turns into morning, and the rules have been broken for the person we can't help but fall for, we know we'll soon have to admit the truth that we kinda don't hate this love when it's with them.

An upbeat, energetic melody and Trella's smooth and rich tone immediately greets us as "Hate It When It's You" begins. A lively and catchy beat plays as Trella sings about trying to close the door on being in a serious relationship, that has ended up transforming from one night to two coffees in the morning. The chorus soars into a captivating and emotional ambience that is also reflected in Trella's tone as the kind of love she has been avoiding has started to take over. An electric and addicting melody carries us forward as the cliche that she hated has turned into something she might be ok with. The emotional chorus returns followed by an escalating and exciting build up that keeps us on the edge as we are guided towards an epic beat drop reflecting the powerful feeling love can have even if we have a hard time admiting it. Yetep and Trella's "Hate It When It's You" has us dancing at night knowing in the morning we will finally be happy to admit that we don't hate the love we had been avoiding for far too long.
