Orkid

21-year-old Swedish starlet Orkid brings her velvety yet fragile vocals combined with her own style of indie-electro-pop to Complex on new single "Obvious". Having put in work behind the scenes since the age of 16, she is now ready to show the world what that hard work has culminated in, and she does not disappoint.

Speaking about the track, she told us: "This song is about the harsh reality of relationships with people. There's nothing worse than being around someone who makes you feel lonely. You want to see the good in them, but in the end you see them for who they really are. You can't connect, and you keeping pushing shit up hill, but it's not genuine from their side. It's like it won't even hurt for them to say goodbye and you're hanging out for all the wrong reasons. So this is kind of a way of saying, to yourself mostly, obviously we don't fit. It's pretty obvious, right?"
