Ghana-born, Britain-raised Nat Oaks shares anthemic production “Hard To Forget,” ruminating on how we can choose to react to different situations. With a soundscape of mighty horns alongside soft electric piano lines and hard-hitting beats, the track is intricate and energetic.
Oaks intense yet infectious vocals deliver confident and unapologetic lyricism as the track builds slowly into an expansive and cinematic finish. Drawing inspiration from how her own breakup left her feeling, Oaks forgoes the sad, breakup anthem to deliver a confident production that urges you to shake off sadness.
An alluring glimpse of her upcoming sophomore EP, the track allows us to unwind within the rhythmic melody, abstract lyrics and idiosyncratic sound.
Rooted in her trademark blend of alternative hip-hop, neo-soul and low-fidelity, Nat Oaks sets herself up as an earnest talent offering immersive and emotive soundscapes.
