This song sort of explores the idea of telling a woman that the man she is with is no good for her. Women deserve that from us I feel.”
alextbh – “Still Mine”: Malaysian artist alextbh has released the official video for his new single “still mine.” On the video, Alex describes, “Soon as I was done producing the song, I knew I had to incorporate visuals. Just like the song, I want the video to depict an almost palpable sense of pain and loss, even though it’s tranquil at first look. It’s chaotic, but it’s also calm. That is how I felt about this guy — he wouldn’t reciprocate so I had a war in my mind, but he never knows“.
“Still Mine” is a great mixture between pop and R&B, creating a blend that is iconic, unique and beautiful. Watch the video below.
