Following up on her 2024 effort ‘thoughts & therapy’, London-based songstress Aruna has recently returned with ‘Go’, a strikingly beautiful piano ballad that goes a long way in showcasing her nuanced vocal tone and purposeful, vulnerable songwriting. Championing a minimalistic outlook, the record finds its strength in dreamy poignancy and heartfelt lyricism, all qualities that reveal a truly elegant and lush piece.
Continuing her mission to spotlight underrepresented voices in the British music industry, Aruna appears to explore a softer, more exposed side of her artistry, while still pushing boundaries as a woman of colour in the global pop landscape. Speaking about the inspiration behind the song, she explains: “‘Go’ is about the grief that comes with ending something that was once safe, loving, and real. It’s not about the kind of breakup that’s caused by toxicity or betrayal – it’s about facing the quiet truth that something that was once good can stop being right for you. That first adult heartbreak hits differently.”
