For his new collab with Jaira Burns, Demo Taped is tackling the emotional toll of unrequited love in the modern age.
"We wake up and immediately go to our app of choice to see what our friends, crushes, lovers, etc. are doing at every moment," Demo Taped told Complex of the new track. "We're so conditioned that we do it without thought.

"I really liked the vibe and progression of the track and it was an easy decision to jump on this song with Demo Taped as my first feature."
