Perth artist RHY delves into the topic of social awkwardness with his just-released new single ‘I Just Don’t Get It’.
It’s a totally listenable piece, packed with ’80s influences and retro synths and armed with a hook that’s bound to stay with you throughout the weekend.
But, as mentioned in the opener, it also delves into a story of social awkwardness.
“‘I Just Don’t Get It’ is written out of a place of kinda mock frustration at myself,” he explains. “Sometimes I unintentionally retreat into my own head when I’m with people and I tend to embarrass myself in social contexts more than I’d like to.
“I don’t really care anymore, and I think I’ve just accepted it as a part of my personality, but honestly there’s been times where I’ve felt pretty dumb, and it can sting a bit.”
So do as RHY has done… embrace that awkwardness and stride confidently into your weekend.
With ‘I Just Don’t Get It’ on repeat, obviously.
