KESHI RELEASES “SAY” OUT NOW, OFF NEWLY ANNOUNCED ALBUM
HIGHLY ANTICIPATED SOPHOMORE ALBUM REQUIEM
OUT SEPTEMBER 13 PRE-ORDER/PRE-SAVE HERE
“In all my attempts to make meaningful music, I overlooked songs that were built to just get people to move. I remember touring on the road and really craving to play songs that just felt good to groove to. ‘Say’ is my answer to that. It’s got a moody sort of cadence with an admiration for city-pop baked into it.”
After announcing his upcoming full-length album, Requiem, to be released on September 13th, today, keshi releases “Say,” accompanied by a sleek and cinematic video, watch here.
Co-produced by keshi, Elie Rizk, Malay, and Imad Royal, “Say” culminates with a chantable refrain uplifted by his powerhouse delivery. Filmed in Seoul, Korea, the visual threads together vignettes of a lonely modern metropolis with an intimate concert-for-one by keshi. He emotes in front of the microphone with a Fender Stratocaster in-hand as his lone female co-star effectively drifts through the cityscape’s empty mall, train station, phone booth, and beyond. Scenes atop a skyscraper’s roof prove just as breathtaking as the hook does.
Pre-order/Pre-save Requiem HERE.
