One of the fastest-rising young art-pop artists, Zekiizo, enters a raw emotional space on the new single “Kiss”, a high-energy yet melancholic exploration of the frenzied electricity of new love following heartbreak. Now available on Spotify, “Kiss” is a vibe that’s heavily coated with grit and truth, along with a generous dose of unapologetic attitude.
Essentially, “Kiss” dissects the fraught emotions that can accompany the shift from an old relationship to a new one. It’s a fragile moment of two souls, each with parts of the past, joining together to find emotional and physical connection in the present. Zekiizo refers to it as “a track that feels like an injustice to both parties, but in the end, both players gain something from it, lust and connection."
The single, “Kiss,” combines a pulsing beat with atmospheric tones that swoosh, resulting in a landscape that feels both dangerous and alluring. It's upbeat beat makes you want to dance, but its more somber undertones bring you further into the narrative. Zekiizo’s vocal performance exudes confidence and vulnerability. He excels at capturing both sides of that coin. You feel this when starting anew, yet still keeping a piece of what was behind.
There’s not just romance in this track, but self-awareness and understanding to embrace what you enjoy, even if it’s messy. ‘Kiss’ is like a diary entry to a seductive beat. Anyone who has ever jumped into something new while still nursing an old habit can relate to this. Whether you’re just discovering Zekiizo or already vibing to his sound, “Kiss” is a statement that cements his artistry. It’s evidence that vulnerability and edge can coexist, and that when they do, the result is memorable.
