Yaeji: One More

Wholeheartedly here for Yaeji. Today, the vocalist, producer and visual artist debuts “One More,” her first new song since releasing her critically acclaimed EP2 last year. If you missed her at Coachella, Sonar and Berghain’s Panorama Bar as well as her sold out headlining tour of North America, now’s a good time to tune in. If you follow our Spotify playlist, then you’ve probably caught yourself dancing to her rework of Charli XCX’s “Focus” and not even realized you’ve already been introduced.

“I started writing this track while experiencing deep growing pains. I felt lost in my life’s quick change of pace, and was betrayed by someone I trusted. I needed to write this song to understand what was happening around me. Throughout the next few months, I kept revisiting the track, adding and taking away bits, changing the synth completely, rewriting a part of the lyrics—it was a constantly changing piece that documented the process of my transformation. Listening to the earliest version of the song through its evolution, I remembered the times I was confused or angry, processed those feelings, understood my pains, and finally felt like I gained a bit of control over it all. “One More” is about enduring and coming to terms with pain until you have the strength to forgive and move on.”
