The new track comes with a similarly eclectic and memorable video
With a flagrant disregard for genre conventions or traditional structures, tiLLie and her self-described brand of “nightmare pop” have been winning the artist mountains of praise and plaudits over the last few years, with each new release seemingly more intoxicating and creative than the last across a stellar catalogue of tracks.
The latest addition to her arsenal is ‘pray t0 god’, an uneasy blend of bubblegum pop and nu-metal that somehow manages to feel as melodic and captivating as it does abrasive. The artist’s larger than life charisma and the guile and ingenuity of her sound ensures that listening to tiLLie feels unlike anything else, and her unpredictable nature and vibrant flair ensure that there is never a dull moment along the way. ‘pray t0 god’ is packed full of rage and has an aura of revenge and angst throughout, making for a nuanced and dynamic feel that has as much substance as it does style.
“For years there has been an abusive figure in my family who has inflicted pain on not just their partner, but all of us. Although ive managed to heal and build a healthy life for myself, knowing that my family is still under his control makes it hard for me to feel grounded in the new found peace ive created. The music video for ‘Pray t0 god’ depicts the emotional duality of feeling prisoner to the effects of this abuser while simultaneously trying to embrace this healthy, empowered era in my healing journey. “ says tiLLie
