Rising Somali-Canadian R&B artist, Amaal, releases her new single, “Coming and Going,” today.
“Coming and Going” is a silky, lustrous number about how the experience of being in love can sometimes have equal parts highs and lows and the recognition that the bad often doesn’t negate the good. Speaking on the track’s inspiration, Amaal shared: “Coming and Going was inspired by a relationship that had no defining status. I think a lot of us have been in situations where we should leave but it feels so good to stay.” Check out “Coming and Going” here.
“Coming and Going” is the second single off Amaal’s upcoming debut EP set to be released this summer and is the follow-up to the groundbreaking “Not What I Thought.” The visuals for “Not What I Thought,” directed by creative Sean Brown (best known for his work with Daniel Caesar), is quickly approaching 1 million views. As featured by Complex and The Fader, and on playlists including Spotify’s Just Vibing, Indie Pop Chillout and Rhythm & Baws as well as featured as Apple Canada’s best new artist of the week in February, Amaal is set to “empower and allure” (The Line of Best Fit) with her storytelling and songwriting.
