PREMIERE // KERRI & NAJI Soothe Your Anxieties With ‘Growing Pains’
Bringing a tenderness and tranquility that will calm all of your worries, Growing Pains is the heartwarming collaboration from kerri and Naji.
In a kaleidoscopic haze of sonic tones, Growing Pains is the newest offering from Canadian artist kerri and American soul artist Naji. The duo bring the best of their individual sounds and combine them into a mesmerising melody, streamed with shimmering electronics and calming vocals. The track is the final single to be lifted from kerri’s forthcoming album, QUEENCITY, and marks a charming taste of what’s to come. With undertones of frustration, betrayal, and ultimately self-growth arising from the introspective lyrics, it’s a track that will touch you to the core.
Speaking more about the track, kerri shares:
We found a way to relate to each other’s experiences with finding confidence in ourselves after being alone & how hard it can be healing from someone hurting you. Emotional weight is a lot to carry and takes a lot of strength to overcome. We produced the track & wrote the first versions of our vocals together the first time we met & sent files back and forth over email until it was finished.
