R&B singer-songwriter Maki is back with another song that will surely make us remember our bitter-sweet love stories, entitled “Saan?”, Maki’s latest single will be released on digital platforms this Friday (Mar. 31).
The pop-alternative track takes listeners on a journey of pining for a love that slipped away. With the help of Nhiko Sabiniano of Nameless Kids, who produced the song, Maki composed the track and was able to deliver a fresh yet melancholic sound that depicts the feeling of being left alone.
Maki shared that the song is fit for people who struggle trying to explain the feeling of ‘sepanx.’ Whereas it expresses the yearning and the effort made when trying to return to the locations where you used to spend time with them in hopes of running into them there once more and while you reminisce, you search for the part or reasons where it went wrong.
Through his new single, Maki hopes to give comfort and solace to listeners as they process their own heartbreaks.
“Cry until there’s nothing left. Grieve until it gets old. Every bad memory that lingers in your mind can and will always trigger your emotions. So let the tears flow as it should be. After that, reflect and redirect your focus on other things,” he shared.
Maki became well-known on TikTok for covering OPM and K-pop hits such as “Pasilyo,” “Shoot Out,” and “After Like.” His debut single “Halaga” released under Tarsier Records has gained over 45,000 streams across different platforms. Maki also released a R&B version of the viral hit “Gusto Ko Nang Bumitaw” which earned over 800,000 streams on Spotify.
