Since then, she has teamed up with her friend and fellow producer Torin Umrigar to release more songs that push glum as a lo-fi pop/R ‘n’ B artist, the fourth of which is ‘glad ur gone’.

‘glad ur gone’ was written at the tail end of a long term relationship. “The song was written once I was able to take a step back and look at it from a clearer perspective,” she says. “Writing the song felt like the closure to the whole situation and was when I realised that I was better off after the relationship had ended.”
