“What was the inspiration behind “(暈 Dizzy)”? Can you walk us through the creative process of bringing this track to life?
“‘暈 (Dizzy)’ is inspired by that head-spinning, ‘oh no, hot baes all around; who should I approach 👀’ moment of attraction—but, like, with bass. The kind of bass that shakes your soul and maybe your apartment walls too. The creative process? Picture me ankle-pounding to a beat in front of my arranger and saying, ‘Make it feel like you’re falling in slow motion, but also kind of sweating.’ That’s where it started. We built the rhythm around that vibe, tweaking 808s and hypnotic layers to mimic that crawling-through-your-veins kind of desire.”
The title “(暈 Dizzy)” seems intriguing. How does the song’s theme or emotion connect to that feeling of dizziness or disorientation?
“暈 captures that moment when your brain glitches because you’re drawn to someone—or maybe just because you had one too many gin shots. or maybe GiNN 🥵. Either way, the feeling of being a little off-balance, vulnerable, and exhilarated ties perfectly to the groove. I mean, the bassline is basically designed to make your head spin, so if you feel dizzy, mission accomplished.”
This is your latest single—how does it differ from your previous musical works? What new artistic direction are you exploring with this release?
“‘暈 (Dizzy)’ leans way more into Deep House and sensual vibes compared to my previous tracks, which were a bit more chaotic ATL-meets-Electro Hop energy. With this one, I wanted to be a little more unapologetic—think ‘sultry, but make it respectful.’ It’s still me, but now I’m making you vibe harder while questioning if you’re emotionally stable enough to handle it.”
Were there any unique challenges or memorable moments during the recording of “暈(Dizzy)”?
“The biggest challenge was mixing my deep voice with the 808s without it sounding like an earthquake simulator. I love my vocal body, but man, it’s like trying to shove two alphas into one room and telling them to play nice. As for memorable moments? Definitely when I was ankle-pounding to explain the beat. My arranger thought I was having an episode—or maybe just too caffeinated because we drink too much coffee every single day.”
Can you share a bit about the production process? Did you collaborate with any other musicians or producers on this track?
“It was me and my arranger, LNCL, vibing in the studio like mad scientists. He’s the genius who gets my chaotic ideas and taste with sound designs/selections—like when I said, ‘Make it sound sexy but not in a creepy way.’ I also used my vocal layers as an instrument, shaping the track’s energy with little ‘huhs’ and ‘ahs.’ Basically, I collaborated with LNCL, my coffee addiction, and my ankles that still hurt after four months haha.”
What emotions or message do you hope listeners will take away after hearing “暈(Dizzy)”?
“I want people to feel sexy, confident, and just the right amount of dizziness. Like, ‘Should I text my ex? No, I’m too hot for that.’ But on a deeper level, it’s about enjoying chemistry while keeping it respectful. No creepy energy allowed, please. There’s absolutely no excuse for being disrespectful to anyone’s boundaries.”
How does this single fit into your broader musical journey or upcoming project?
“‘暈 (Dizzy)’ is the appetizer for my upcoming project Post-Euphoria. It’s like me saying, ‘Hey, this is my lane now—welcome aboard, hold tight, and maybe hydrate.’ The project dives deeper into Electro Hop while still playing with intimacy, cultural fusion, and my overall vibe of ‘I make bangers, but I’m kinda emo too.'”
The music scene is constantly evolving. How do you see “(暈 Dizzy)” reflecting current musical trends while maintaining your unique artistic voice?
“‘暈 Dizzy’ definitely taps into the global Deep House wave but adds my little twist of bilingual lyrics and dark humor. It’s like, ‘Here’s a sexy, trendy vibe—but wait, why is this dude rapping about attraction with a bassline that could destroy speakers?’ That’s where my voice comes in, both literally and artistically.”
Are there any personal experiences or stories that influenced the creation of this single?
“Look, I’ve had my fair share of ‘you’re way too attractive, and I might pass out’ moments. Growing up in an Asian household, though, there was always this unspoken (or very spoken) stigma around physical touch—like, any form of romantic connection was a scandal waiting to happen. That kind of upbringing definitely shaped how I approach these themes in my music. ‘暈 Dizzy’ is me trying to break that mold, saying it’s okay to embrace desire as long as it’s grounded in respect.
Also, fun fact: there was a time I drank so much that I caught alcohol-induced fatty liver disease—big oops there. So these days, I drink a lot less and channel those wild, tipsy emotions into my music instead. Safe to say, the ‘暈 dizzy’ vibes here are bass-induced, not gin-induced. Progress, right?”
For fans who are just discovering your music through “(暈 Dizzy)”—how would you describe your overall musical style, and what makes your sound distinctive?
“My music is Electro Hop meets Deep House with a dash of emo rap and dark humor. It’s bass-heavy, bilingual, and hits like a heavy shot of GiNN—fun in the moment but leaves you thinking, ‘Wait, there’s more to this?’ Also, my voice is way deeper than you’d expect from my face, which definitely confuses people and makes it more fun.”
