This theme is inspiring a lot Japanese London based artist Rina Sawayama with her brand new track “Where U Are” that we talked about a few weeks ago. You can now check the video for it

In this video, directed by Rina Sawayama herself and Alessandra Kurr, you can see a much obsessed Rina checking her Instagram account, putting new pictures, looking for some more likes, checking pictures filters… Well doing essentially our daily lives in social media.

This video reminds a lot her last video for her amazing track “Tunnel Vision” thanks to its colours and the posture of Rina in her bed showing that there is a sort of continuity between both videos.

We are waiting for her EP called “Alone Together” any time soon and we will keep you posted !

[su_dropcap style=”simple”]L[/su_dropcap]ast summer we talked about London based artist/model Rina Sawayama and her dreamy track “Tunnel Vision and we were incredibly seduced by her voice and her sweet way of bringing music. She is now back with a new track called “Where U Are” proving once again her innate talent

Produced by Hoost, who was already behing “Tunnel Vision”, the track gets all what we love about her : her sweet voice, a strong 90’s R&B vibe (Hello Mariah !) and lyrics about youth and social media. You might not have see it immediately but this is actually a small rework of The Jackson 5 song “I Wanna Be Where You Are”.

We are hoping that this is the premise of new stuff coming up, Rina !
