Airliftz paints a love story that transcends time and space on his new single ‘POPULATION: TWO’
Acclaimed Malaysian rapper, singer-songwriter, and producer Airliftz’s star burns as bright as ever. Under the stewardship of RedRecords, Airliftz is excited to unveil his newest single, ‘POPULATION: TWO’. A testament to his effortless versatility and limitless artistry, ‘POPULATION: TWO’ oscillates away from his Rap roots in the best way possible, letting his wizardly Pop/Pop Rock sensibilities take over for a lush 3-minutes as listeners embark on a colorful love-filled odyssey told through Airliftz’s eyes.
Drawing inspiration from Post Malone’s ‘Chemical’, Airliftz enlisted the help of friends/co-producers Iggy and Panik Records’s Ian Lee, resulting in a “nostalgia-core” sound with reverb-heavy guitars and vintage 80s synth elements.
“I wanted to create a song that could live forever. Something evergreen,” - Airliftz.
A poignant vignette of Airliftz’s inner world, listeners can anticipate a musical journey that goes beyond the ordinary – one filled with emotion, nostalgia, and the boundless possibilities of love.
“I hope listeners see themselves in the song. Imagining a love story of their own, painting their own pictures of what their world could be... The possibility of such an adventurous love story – straight out of your favorite animated TV show.” - Airliftz
“In a world that can sometimes feel gray and sad, I just want people to imagine again.”
“POPULATION: TWO” will be available on all digital streaming platforms on 8 December 2023. And here's a short preview of the new song below! Enjoy!
'POPULATION: TWO' emerged as a heartfelt tribute and gift from Airliftz to his partner, born from a moment of inspiration on her birthday. As the first hints of sun began creeping into his studio on a quiet October morning, Airliftz found himself reflecting on the fleeting nature of time and the preciousness of life. Grappling with the challenge of expressing the profound love he felt, the song's narrative began to take shape.
Sparked by the couple's shared desire to attend a dance class together, the lyrics seamlessly weave through the metaphorical landscapes of a post-apocalyptic world. The chorus stands as a poignant declaration of loyalty, where amidst ruins, the two remain together – hand in hand and heart to heart – transforming desolation into their very own shared canvas of beauty.
