Rising pop star and artist Amalie is releasing her highly anticipated single, So Please.
This addictive pop anthem is set to release on Friday October 13.
The release of So Please follows the success of her latest single, Good Luck Black Cat.
The 18-year-old Macedon artist began her musical journey full-time at the age of 14, releasing her first two singles, Parachute Man and Am I Going Crazy, soon after she featured in Fever by London production team, OMNIVI3E.
Fun, electric and relatable, So Please is a song you can’t help but sing along to, inspired by Amalie’s own experiences.
Amalie said So Please was about frustration and life and overwhelm.
“You know, you’re trying to get somewhere, you’ve got a goal and your annoyed because things keep happening that make you feel like it’s so far away and hard to get to and it’s at that moment when you just explode and this song finds fun and humour in that,” she said.
“Everybody feels like that, everybody has a moment when they need to just go nuts for a minute and let it out and that’s what makes So Please so relatable.”
Amalie has yet again painted the artwork for her single. Painting and the arts have always been a huge part of Amalie’s life. She began painting commission portraits at the age of 14 to fund her musical career.
The artwork depicts different aspects of her life. Self portraits and boxes scattered around the room; glimpses of the wallpaper from her Gran’s house and the ceiling plasterwork from her old music room.
Amalie describes the artwork as a “self reflection or an overwhelming space that reflects different parts of myself, a metaphorical interpretation of how I feel when everything gets to much”.
The artwork also contains hidden connections to her previous release, Good Luck Black Cat, and a few connections to her future releases too.
“I was in my room one day, we had recently moved house,” Amalie said.
“I was sitting on the bed and all I had in the room were boxes and the self portraits I had hang up on the walls and it was a really weird experience having all of these reflections of myself staring back at me and that gave me the idea for the artwork for So Please.”
Written by Amalie with the intent to perform it in the streets of Byron Bay, So Please has been produced with the help of platinum award-winning producer Garrett Kato.
It will be available on all major streaming platforms including Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon and iTunes.
