Alternative pop artist ROKI unveils her Lovable EP, and her singles “The One” and “Hands Up” have already been met with positive reviews. Produced by ROKI, Ben Kaplan (Mother Mother) and Winston Hauschild (Wanting Qu), Lovable heralds a new era of sound: dreamier, brighter, and hopeful for new possibilities, and carries with it a message that we are all lovable, even in our imperfections.
“Natural” is ROKI’s second songwriting collaboration with Tea Petrovic (who she previously worked together on “Hands Up”), as well as Nat Jay. ROKI wanted to write this song as a gift for someone close to her heart, to celebrate their positive relationship.
Lovable’s message and core theme is of love, the ups, the downs, the desperation at times, and at other times the ease. It’s an ever-evolving, ever-changing dynamic that pulls at our emotions.
