Kali Uchis Premieres New Music Video for “Solita”
Grammy-and Latin Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Kali Uchis premiered a new music video for “Solita”.
The clip was shot in Los Angeles and is directed by Amber Grace Johnson.
The song was released on December 4th. It was written by Ant Clemons, Jahaan Sweet, Rupert Thomas, Jr., Marco Masis and Kali Uchis.
She told Zane Lowe of Beats 1 radio show about the song, “The vibe was sad yet horny. You know, there’s a bit of like sexiness in it, but it’s also like nostalgic. Like, the hook basically translates to: ‘I’d rather dance alone than with the devil.’ So, I think it kinda just goes back to wanting to feel empowered about independence rather than feel like: ‘poor me, I’m alone.’ It’s not really like that. I wrote this song a year ago. I was coming out of a breakup from a really long relationship, and I think the song still resonates with me because I definitely look at relationships really differently [now]. I think a great relationship can add a lot of value to your life, and anything that isn’t or any people or relationships or friendships that aren’t adding value to your life, I think it’s important to cut those out. I’m older now. I’m 25. I just feel like if you’re not adding value, you’re polluting […] my space, my sanctuary. […] This is one of the more bilingual songs on the album, so this one is definitely more Spanglish.”- MTdj-6Bd5wk
