At the core of 'Half' lies KiD RAiN's irresistible pop vocal, radiating a laid-back charm that immediately resonates with listeners. The track delves deep into the intricacies of life's uncertain moments—the delicate balance between childhood and adulthood, the allure of singledom compared to the fulfillment of a relationship, and the pangs of loneliness juxtaposed with the need for solitude. KiD RAiN astutely observes, "Half of my friends are picking up mortgages, and the other half are picking up drugs." Amidst it all, ambition battles against exhaustion, encapsulated by the song's irresistible hook: "Half of me has big plans of moving to the city, but the other half just wants to sleep."
'Half' stands as a testament to KiD RAiN's exceptional artistry, as he takes full control of the songwriting and production. Joining forces with renowned mixer Will Reeves (known for his work with Stormzy, Bree Runway, and Olivia Dean), KiD RAiN crafts a musical experience that defies boundaries.
In KiD RAiN's own words, "Amidst the ambiguity of life, I often find myself questioning whether I'm truly a kid or a grown-up. While I may not feel like a grown-up, there I am at 9 pm, cozied up in bed, watching 'Come Dine With Me' with a face mask on. Perhaps I'm a hybrid? 'Half' is a heartfelt anthem for those who find themselves caught in life's limbo—a song that won't magically resolve the uncertainty but will provide solace and connection."
KiD RAiN's journey to stardom has been punctuated by a series of remarkable milestones. Chart success on Spotify and Apple Music, coveted placements on international New Music Friday playlists, and the distinction of BBC Introducing Track of the Week all testify to his undeniable talent. The charisma that permeates his music and social media presence effortlessly translates to electrifying live performances. KiD RAiN has graced stages across the country, from headline tours to awe-inspiring appearances alongside The Vamps, even sharing the stage to perform Demi Lovato's verse in 'Somebody To You.' Notably, he mesmerized audiences at The Great Escape and kicked off 2023 with a memorable School Night show at The Old Blue Last.
KiD RAiN's musical journey began at the tender age of 12, where his songwriting and production skills blossomed. These talents remain the very essence of his identity as an artist, continually honed through collaborations with industry heavyweights such as Tim Woodcock (Little Mix), Jim Irvin (Lana Del Rey, YUNGBLUD), the Grammy-nominated Mitch Jones (Ed Sheeran), King Ed (Years & Years), and Ryan Lawrie (BTS).
