The track is the artist’s first release following her acclaimed EP Get to Love You
Offering something a bit different to her usual, more soulful output, latest Gaby K single ‘Not Right’ sees the artist delving headfirst into more dynamic, jungle-inspired territory, upping the tempo and showcasing the depth and versatility of the multi-faceted artist.
Its upbeat jungle soundscape and the artist’s charismatic and engrossing vocals surge the track to life as soon as they combine, with the artist’s earnest and personality-filled charm feeling as potent as ever despite the busier and more intense nature of the sound. The way that the artist has pivoted in this direction so seamlessly on the release feels daring and exciting, and when compounded by a relatable narrative about losing yourself and trying to figure out what you’re doing with your life, it makes for a devastatingly raw and intense track that nails the atmosphere perfectly.
“I wrote this track when I was going through a bit of a dark time” Gaby K says of the new release. “I didn’t know what I was doing with my life and coming to the end of my 20s, I spiralled a little, with the pressure of how i should know where my life is going. I basically talk about exactly what I was doing in those few months of partying and losing my mind and just panicking about nearly turning 30. I wanted it to be a jungle track because that’s what I was listening to at the time and felt it fit for the lyrics. Now I listen to it, it makes me smile. We see our 20s as a time where we need to figure stuff out and know what we are doing and where we are going and a lot of us panic but actually it’s a time to have fun and enjoy ourselves.
