Wiley describes the track as being “about standing on your own and knowing what’s best for you,” and makes her message clear with her stunning, soulful vocals over Eno and Soraya’s brassy production.

Kaiit is a Melbourne artist on the rise, and her newest joint "2000 N Somethin" features some slick vocals over slow jammin' production courtesy of Momo of Diafrix. Kaiit says the song was birthed from "feeling like I wasn’t born at the right time after trying to fit in social situations. I couldn’t relate to the culture and that people were evidently not good for my wellbeing.” The single is set to feature on My Dear Diary, Kaiit’s forthcoming EP.
