What's the release, and when is it out?
The single is called Downfall. No release date yet, but it will be out soon.
What's it about? What were you trying to say or capture?
It is based on a love/hate toxic relationship, with heartache and pain.
Take us behind the making of it.
I recorded it at my producer Corn G's house. I was dealing with a toxic love/hate relationship and needed to express my thoughts and feelings, so I wrote them down on a piece of paper.
Is there a standout track or moment you want people to hear first?
The standout moment is when I repeat the line on the track: 'I ain't never felt love like this before.'
How would you describe the sound of this release?
The sound is very laid back, with nice vocals and a catchy chorus.
What do you want listeners to feel or take away?
With every toxic relationship, things will happen, but it is up to the people in the relationship to hold it together.
What's next after this drops?
Shows, videos, and my next project.
Where can people stream it and follow you?
You can find me on Facebook at facebook.com/Christopher.white.34267.
