After a two-year hiatus, Delphic London artist LEILAH returns with her new single, “WILDGROWTH,” which is now out via VLF Records. The song, made with the producer Sam Tsang, is an immersive, raw experience with deep introspection, exploring the tumult of personal evolution and the power of human connection.
From the first moments, “WILDGROWTH” manifests like a storm coming through moody, unpredictable, and crackling with emotion. The braces of ruptured atmospherics and percolating percussion serve LEILAH’s voice, which conveys vulnerability alongside a quiet strength. The song sticks, reverberating in the mind like an unshakeable memory.
“WILDGROWTH” is ultimately a meditation on the nonlinear aspect of growth. LEILAH lays bare the intricacies of relationships, the ones that withstand pressure and the ones that don’t. The song’s about riding things out between each other on our growth journeys. And seeing who we are and who we can be. It’s an anthem for anybody who’s ever felt cast aside in their low points, a reminder that authentic connection isn’t just about standing by one another in the smooth patches but amidst the mania and the unknown.
What distinguishes this track from others is its raw emotional honesty. Subtle and defiant, her vocals creak with the back and forth of personal evolution. Tsang’s production amplifies the message, with strong threads of detail that weave together into and unravel from something beautiful that mirrors the relationships LEILAH broaches.
“WILDGROWTH” is a call to sit with discomfort, embrace the messiness of becoming, and acknowledge that growth is almost always painful but never meant to be individual. LEILAH has created a deeply personal, yet universal track that feels like a confession, a release, and a rallying cry.
