Axel Dorothea is making effortless and infinitely breezy Afropop despite the restrictions of a song’s subject matter. this song tackles the uncertainty of unrequited love with such a laidback air it sounds less a worried lament and more a confident prayer into existence.
Don’t know why is about breaking up with someone who refuses to let go, even though it was their mistakes they don’t accept the breakup! We all can relate to this.
“I wrote this during a breakup, so it is very much based in reality. I worked on this song in my bedroom. My idea, I wanted it to be a relationship realization type of song with a chill beat , yet with afrobeat drums feel.”
