Despite dropping just one single, happy im, back in August. Rising great R&B/Soul singer and songwriter, UMI, still had a pretty solid 2023. That seen her give several spectacular performances throughout the year. Including her beautifully joyous debut Lollapalooza performance that was also back in August.
Looking to cap this year on a high and build momentum for 2024 with her highly-anticipated, talking to the wind EP, dropping on Jan. 19th. UMI today drops her very vibrantly comforting stripped-down heartfelt new single, wherever u r. That features V of 21st century icons, BTS.
The new single is a very heartfelt duet about loving someone from a distance. That UMI originally wrote to express how much she misses her grandmother who lives in Japan, but after V joined her took on a whole new meaning. Which is for anybody who feels separated from anyone from a distance. Whether it’s a different state, place, time zone or something else. It’s a reminder that whether through a text, phone call or some other type of communication you can still send love to someone you love. That can put a smile on their and/or your face. Which makes you both happy.
