On her sophomore single ‘Dear Boy’, 16-year-old English French pop artist Melina Hazewood continues to showcase a playful and engrossing sound that belies her young years and puts her on the map as a fiercely exciting rising artist with a distinctive and affable appeal.

The track thoughtfully explores a narrative of a boy falling in love with the preconceived ideas and notions that he has projected on a girl, rather than who she actually is. This relatable and engrossing narrative feels fun and light-hearted throughout, while providing an interesting backdrop for the artist to showcase her similarly exciting sound on. Melina is an artist who clearly has a wealth of influences and different styles in her sound, and this provides her with a distinctive, yet palatable flavour to her style that immediately singles her out as one to watch.

“The girl plays around with the fact that she is seen as a ‘goddess’ but tries to kindly talk some sense into the guy and make him realise that what he sees in her is unrealistic.” Melina says of the track. “Ultimately, she wants to be loved for who she really is, not how he perceives her.”
