This bedroom pop immediately has the listener bopping their head along to it. Not only is this song incredibly catchy, but it is also incredibly good on the ears. This song has been on repeat for about twenty minutes, and I have not gotten tired of it. The three voices of Holly, Ivoris, and Zhuli make this song addicting; they complement each other so well and their tones blend so nicely. Not only is this song relatable to many listeners, but it is also a new and unique way to look at a breakup. The unmatched talent of these three young artists shines through in this creation they made together. and I hope to hear more songs from each of them in the near future! My first thoughts while listening to this phenomenal track were that it reminded me of "Smile" by Lily Allen and the artist Mxmtoon. This piece is about an ex with a chronic victim and savior complex. horrible, right? But instead of letting them continue to wallow in their self-pity, you instead call out their behavior. Instead of getting annoyed, you instead embrace their label of "Supervillain" and poke fun at them while you do it. This song does this in a playful and not-too-serious way. I love it! The dreamy production and harmonization might be my favorite parts of this song.

Q: ‘Catch My Breath’ is so catchy! What is the meaning behind the song? LIYAH: Catch My Breath represents that feeling you get when you fall for someone hard. When you can't stop thinking about them and you can hardly imagine life without them. The love you have for them is so intense, and when you're with them your heart is beating so fast, that you can't catch your breath. Q: What does your songwriting process typically look like? LIYAH: All of my songs are written with my producer Jason Afable (@jasonafablemusic). When we're writing a song, we usually start with basic chords over a beat and decide what kind of story the song sounds like it would tell. From there it's just a lot of mumbling until sounds turn in words which turn into sentences which turn into a story. Q: If you could collaborate with one artist, who would it be? LIYAH: Recently I've been super obsessed with Jenevieve! I love that she's bringing back that old R&B sound and I think our musical styles would come together really nicely! Q: What are some of your hobbies outside of music? LIYAH: I love playing video games (Animal Crossing is my favorite) and I love to read (currently reading IT)! I'm also a huge foodie and love going out and trying different restaurants in the DMV. Q: How does music make you feel? LIYAH: Music feels like a warm hug from your favorite person. Even if the song is angry or sad, it feels like there's someone else who understands you and feels the same way. It's an untouchable feeling! Q: What are you most looking forward to in terms of your music career? LIYAH: The thing I look forward to the most is the growth. I can't wait to look back on myself years from now and see how my vocal skills have progressed, how far across the world my music has traveled, and simply admiring all of the projects I've put out there.

There are good and bad sides to social media. The good being the idea of sharing the best parts of our lives, pretending that we’re living a life only filled with happy and accomplished moments to share with our friends. However, there’s also the inverse. As you look through your and other people’s profiles, you’re blatantly aware that it’s all fake, that it’s not all real, and you’re only getting a carefully curated version of events to make people feel like everything is going well for them. It’s one of our main sources of envy and a way to pretend we’re okay. ÊMIA brings us “heard it on the internet”, a track to describe how we cover up our heartbrokenness with pretty pictures to make people think our lives are more ideal than they genuinely are. It’s a weird way of looking at our own life through rose-colored glasses, watching our life happen from our phone screens, and ignoring everything else that’s going on. “heard it on the internet” is a bubbly pop song, a little electro, a little classic, and all-around satisfying. ÊMIA’s vocals ride a gentle wave of upbeat melodies to bring us a track to tell us about how we live vicariously through our social media personalities—surprisingly being a little motivating in its message of trying to live our best lives. She brings us this track to dictate that our lives can be a reflection of our internet personas, but only if we try hard enough, a fake it till you make it type of energy. ÊMIA sings, “They could put all the pieces together/That I’m happy and doing better” and shows that we’re slowly piecing the parts of our ideal life with each post, hitting it with the underlying hope of the usually sarcastic line, “If you heard it on the internet/Then it must be true”. ÊMIA is a Vietnamese-American, Brooklyn-based singer, songwriter, and producer with an impressive music lineup to showcase her talents. With “heard it on the internet” we are hearing the fifth single to her two-part EP titled “Video Call: AM”. ÊMIA is the stage name of Anh Le’s indie-pop project, one that captures a refreshing and classic music style. “Video Call: AM” is a collaborative project with producer Charlie Kurata— “heard it on the internet” not originally supposed to be featured on the EP. However, as the song grew, it became too close to her heart and cemented its place there. She’s influenced by electronic music, R&B, film scores, and music theatre—creating sparkling magic with her music. Written by Jane Katryn FOLLOW ÊMIA:

Perhaps one of the most widely sympathized struggles in the last few years of pandemic mayhem has been mental health. It’s no surprise that many artists have begun to express their battle and share their experiences through their craft. A brilliant example of this storytelling is Maura Whitman’s 2022 EP Introspection where she intertwines sensitive and personal topics through catchy pop tunes and uplifting instrumentals.

When you think the chorus has hit with “all I ever wanted was for both sides of my heart to feel the same way”, the song keeps ramping the energy up in an almost unexpected fashion all the way to the climax of “both sides, caught in the middle of my mind”. It's like the song continues to defy your expectations, almost metaphorical for how Whitman has persevered through her struggles despite hardships and self doubt. The production of the song compliments the EP’s themes with the intentional choice of leaving out sampled percussion in exchange for only electronic and synthetic sounds. This gives the track an ethereal feeling, representative of how the struggle Whitman sings about happens in a place inside of us that we can’t show to the real world.
