Artist: myah Single: hide Genre: Indie Pop, Pop, Cinematic Release Date: August 11th, 2023
Born and raised in South Florida, Myah has been immersed in music from a young age. Her unique sound is a blend of alternative rock, pop, and pop-punk melodies, drawing influence from bands like Foxing, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Modest Mouse, Sylvan Esso, and Twenty-One Pilots. This eclectic mix solidified her decision to create music of a similar caliber, incorporating familiar pop beats while maintaining an alternative edge.
Storytelling is a cornerstone of Myah’s musical identity. Her lyrics delve deeply into her own life experiences, often laced with a sense of nostalgia. As a self-proclaimed cinematic romantic, she strives to evoke strong emotions through her songwriting. Myah skillfully navigates the spectrum of feelings, from excitement and wonder to love and loss, and she isn’t shy about sharing her emotional journey.
Outside the studio, Myah enjoys indulging in croissants and skating around town, adding a playful touch to her artistic persona.
“Hide” by Myah exudes an organic, tactile vibe with its interesting textures and catchy vocals. The minimalist production is uniquely executed, featuring textured, percussive synths that bounce around underneath Myah’s stellar voice. The song builds up to an explosive chorus at the end, showcasing great dynamics and emotional intensity.
A standout lyrical moment is the line, “In your lies I saw myself hide,” which encapsulates the song’s introspective and evocative nature. “Hide” is a testament to Myah’s talent for blending intricate production with heartfelt storytelling.

Childish Gambino surprises us with Atavista, a polished re-release of his 2020 album 3.15.20. Gambino originally released the unfinished record during the Covid-19 pandemic as a rushed love letter to his apocalypse anxiety and to his fans. Needing a master and a mix, Gambino resurfaced the entire album and dropped it alongside a list of tour dates. Atavista is an intimate album that somehow maintains oodles of mystique and disconnectivity. The words to the songs are new, but the album’s sound isn’t anything that we haven’t heard from Gambino before.
