Starting June with a bang, Liyema headed to her Instagram account to give fans a hint of the song’s genre. She stated that pop music had always been ‘home’ to her.

She added in her post’s caption, “And in a space where pop isn’t always accepted in SA or the loudest, choosing to make the music I love feels like believing in something before the world sees it.”

Liyema seemed to dedicate the song to “pop girls” while also shouting out every South African child who grew up loving melodies, big feelings, and songs that made them dream. Adding to the list, she also mentioned people who feel deeply and anyone who had been waiting for something “a little different.”

“This release means more to me than I can put into words. It’s proof that there’s room for every sound, every dream, and every version of ourselves. I hope it finds the people it’s meant for.”
