Sabodi returns with “Cinderella,” the second release lifted from his forthcoming debut project 2020, arriving in May. Following the momentum of “Ever Know,” the Bristol-born rapper and vocalist continues to refine a sound rooted in melody, lyricism and understated confidence.
“Cinderella” leans into warmth and nostalgia. Jazz-inspired piano chords, subtle guitar licks and airy backing vocals sit against a firm drum break, creating a balanced backdrop for Sabodi’s smooth delivery. His tone remains conversational yet intentional, capturing the simplicity and sincerity of early romance.
Lyrically, the track centres on admiration and longing, wrapped in metaphor. By likening his love interest to a fairy-tale figure, Sabodi highlights the innocence and excitement that define youthful connection. It’s reflective without being heavy, romantic without feeling forced.
Speaking on the single, he describes it as a feel-good record built for brighter days and summer rotation. With 2020 on the horizon, Sabodi continues to build a cohesive musical identity, intimate, melodic and grounded in lived experience.
