British alt/pop artist RiTcH has just dropped his utterly relatable new single, “Emotional.” As he openly admits to finding pleasure in the chase when it comes to relationships. For RiTcH, the contrast teetering on the edge and whirlwind of emotions is almost addictive, as it injects him with a burst of adrenaline. However, despite his playful attitude, the songwriter is fully aware of this unhealthy mindset, recognizing that he is allowing himself to play the fool.
RiTcH shares, “Emotional is essentially about enjoying the back and forth. I wouldn’t have ever called it a relationship, but I was chatting to this girl who loved messing with my head, and I didn't mind it being messed with at the time, that's what kept it fresh and exciting.”
Laced with a boldness, RiTcH’s velvet vocals ride over animated synths and a pulsating hip-hop beat, as his tongue-in-cheek lyrics embed themself into your head. Chanting, ‘’You’re probably texting other guys, other girls are on my mind, but it’s keeping this alive,’’ his honesty is both refreshing and unapologetically raw, giving the lyrics a vulnerable yet fearless edge.
