New York City based singer, songwriter, poet and director Chad Post has just unleashed his latest emotive single, "If I Was God", the first of the year from the versatile artist who promises a full length album in June.
With "If I Was God" Chad Post explores the sometimes difficult realization that some things are out of our control, including who falls and stays in love with us. This understanding can be devastating but comprehending the gravity of what we can and cannot command as humans is important. He further confides, "you could have the best body in the world, be the most attractive person on the planet, the most intelligent, the richest—you could literally be ‘God’ and still, the person you’re in love with can want nothing to do with you. You can’t improve and out-perform yourself, because they just don’t want you. And maybe that’s on them." "If I Was God" impresses with sweeping pitch-black synths and haunting, soulful vocals that culminate to an infectious and hard hitting chorus. The single fuses industrial, electronic and dark pop for a standout cathartic confession. His low sung moody vocals and poignant lyrics contribute to the overall theme of dejection and despair.
Chad Post has made a name for himself as a social media influencer and singer who is an advocate for the LGBTQI+ community. His music is often cinematic and theatrical, drawing influence from the likes of Lana Del Rey, Lady Gaga and Adele. Post's unique style and genre-defying musical releases have attracted a fervent fanbase.
Take a listen to "If I Was God" now and remember to only focus on what you can control.
