On the search for elegant, meaningful and introspective pop music? You just found it. ‘Good Boy’ feels personal and intimate, a confessional piece that sees Australian troubadour Kaiwyn opening up about his own struggles with people-pleasing and the weight of expectations. Steeped in bright and uplifting mainstream pop goodness, ‘Good Boy’ chronicles the Aussie creative’s unique journey towards self-empowerment and assertiveness, as he slowly regains control over his choices and future paths.
It’s a rather heavy and cathartic effort, one that is perfectly counter-balanced by the seemingly lush and expansive musical livery around it. You see, while the songwriting in ‘Good Boy’ is cathartic and crucial, describing issues that many people struggle with, its overarching aural energy is positive and anthemic, also supercharged by Kaiwyn’s evocative and energetic vocals. A medical doctor by day, the New South Wales-based artist is more motivated than ever about his music.
As Kaiwyn reiterates in the song,“I’ve been a good boy all my life, coming to terms with what I like / “I’m not someone you can brutalise… I thought I tried to give you everything”. We are confident that such powerful lyrics will connect with many folks around the world. ‘Good Boy’ is a simple, yet heartwarming and honest record, a slice of authenticity and vulnerability in a gloomy, chaotic reality.
