My sophomore album, SOL, is finally out. I held this project close to my heart all year, and now it’s finally yours.

…

I don’t even know where to start.

I wrote this album as my self-discovery journal over the last few years as I navigated through relationships, adulthood, and trying to make a living in a way too expensive city. The through line for me has always been how I approach the highs and lows. That approach is largely because of how my grandma, Solita (Sol for short), and how the rest of my family, raised me.

I named the album after my Grandma Sol because I realized how much she taught me growing up. Her lessons are littered throughout the album, some more apparent than others. She taught me patience, how to see both sides, and how to lead with love. There was nothing better than hanging out at her apartment after school and just talking to her. Listening to her brother’s tape of him playing classical guitar and hearing how much she loved hearing him play. I won’t ever know what she thinks of this project, but hopefully she thinks it’s slaps lol.

Now, this album is all yours. I hope you find what you’re looking for listening to these songs <3

HERE FOR A WHILE by me & @wyatt_woodley is out now!

we wrote this together a few months ago when we were both just feeling the weight of where the world is today and everything going on. crazy times we’re living in for real, and it just keeps getting crazier. this song is our little slice of light that we wanted to share with y’all. call a friend, hang, smile - cause we could be here for a while 🫶🏽 damn did u see what i did there smh

HERE FOR A WHILE BY @labitlabit + I IS EVERYWHERE!

We made this song in a single sitting, after scheduling an impromptu session together. We’d worked once before but something brought us back together. This one instantly clicked for the both of us, and we were done in a couple of hours. I love the honesty, and perspective of this joint. It feels like here, it feels like now. With the hope of brighter days on the horizon, we can find solace in being “HERE FOR A WHILE”.

Go blap that wherever you enjoy your music 🥹

shot a video for “CLEANING OUT THE FRIDGE” w my friend @kimchimichael when i was in NY late last year. i remember all of us walking through the city, capturing moments across different relationships and really just what the whole song is about. y’all can check the whole thing on my yt channel :)

massive thanks to the whole crew ❤️

cleaning out the fridgeee

there’s an elephant hiding
bending the floorboards
you’ve got something to say
but you’re eyes look away
as you’re pulling your t-shirt

i know you’re tired of fighting
but it’s only a conversation
stuck in your throat
on the side of the road
it’s the song that you’re playing

tell me everything you’ve ever said
every different version of the person you’ve been
every single thread on your side of the bed
i wanna know it all and then know you again
tell me everything you’ve ever said
i’m tryna make sense of the mess we’re in
i’m knocking down the walls
and cleaning out the fridge
i wanna know it all and then know you again

air it out on the clothesline
leave it there on the counter
cause i’m not afraid
of the time it’ll take
to make a land mine a flower

cause the hard part’s not that hard
and the dark part’s not that dark

tell me everything you’ve ever said
every different version of the person you’ve been
every single thread on your side of the bed
i wanna know it all and then know you again
tell me everything you’ve ever said
i’m tryna make sense of the mess we’re in
i’m knocking down the walls
and cleaning out the fridge
i wanna know it all and then know you again
