Hurt doesn’t have to be in some kind of sad, tearful ballad that sucks the life out of you. Sometimes, you just need glossy and electrifying beats to prove it hurts. Today, that song is Michellar’s latest single, “CROSSED”.
Michellar is a talented artist based in San Francisco. And for her final release this year, she’s back with a powerful dance anthem that will give you heartache in the most floor-shaking rhythms.
The electrifying intro will catch you off guard, immediately giving you that club ready beats and pads as an invitation to move along. Then Michellar’s voice enters with a sultry, fierce vocals that carries vulnerability, the kind that doesn’t soften but sharpens the track’s edges even more. Think of a sound plotted for sweats and lights, like it asks you to move through suppressed feelings and dares you to keep up.
But underneath is the ache that cannot be hidden with any gloss and shimmers. And there’s something so painfully brutal as Michellar repeats the line, “you have crossed my heart.” It’s as if there’s no way to find out whether it’s a chant or a mantra you never intended to live by.
One thing about Michellar’s CROSSED is it burns deeper despite its bright, high-energy production. Honestly, it’s like dancing, moving your body hard enough while the most devastating question lingers in your mind: Why do we keep going like this when there is no love? If you like heartbreaks dressed as a banger, this is definitely a must-listen.
