Cassidy King has dropped a new single “Polaroid.” The track is the follow up to her earlier song “Professional Smiler” which racked up over 400K views since its release in September. With “Polaroid,” a grainy voice note sample gives way to a sultry verse accented by airy guitar and glitchy production. This lo-fi backdrop culminates on a bridge of trumpets before her transcendent vocals captivate on the hook as she admits, “I just wanna be somebody. I don’t wanna need nobody.”
Of the track Cassidy notes, “‘Polaroid’ is about realizing you have every right to let go. That it’s ok to separate yourself from toxic relationships, whether that be familial or romantic. You’re under no obligation to maintain a relationship for the needs of someone else, if it’s breaking you in the process.”
“I don’t have a filter,” she leaves off. “I’m spontaneous. I’m a goofball. I don’t care what others think. I’m someone who’s always trying to be a better version of who she is. I’m just Cassidy King. What you see is what you get. I try to show listeners vulnerability. They’re not alone. What they’re feeling is valid. I hope my music can be a voice for people when they need it. I want to help.”
