Rising artist Hev’s Journey is making waves with her latest release, “Sinking,” a dynamic fusion of pop and R&B. The track explores deep themes of self-worth and emotional resilience, offering listeners an honest look at the challenges of dealing with toxic relationships and the process of reclaiming one’s identity.
For Hev, the song serves as a personal reflection of her own journey—a path of loss, growth, and empowerment. “I wrote ‘Sinking’ when I felt like I was losing someone I had invested so much into,” Hev shares. “I gave love to someone who didn’t return it or appreciate what I offered. Through this experience, I learned my own worth and that I can’t lose myself for anyone. Each of us must choose whether to stay true to who we are or become what others want us to be,” she adds.
The raw emotion behind the lyrics resonates with anyone who has struggled to maintain their sense of self for someone else. Hev hopes that others can connect with the song’s heartfelt melodies and find their own sense of strength through it.
Collaborating with Grammy-winning engineer Serge “Surgical” Tsai, Hev has crafted a sound that is both polished and emotionally charged. “Sinking” represents the refined yet vulnerable style that has become characteristic of her work. Hev’s previous tracks, such as “Dance” and “Broken Promises,” have also been praised for their blend of styles influenced by artists like Adele, SZA, Laufey, Taylor Swift, and Liana Flores. Hev herself describes her sound as a mix of Taylor Swift’s playful artistry, SZA’s impactful lyrics, and Laufey’s distinctiveness.
Hev’s music appeals to both teens and adults, capturing life’s highs and lows in relatable melodies. Beginning her career at just seven years old, Hev views her music as a journey—one she invites her listeners to join. Her stage name, Hev’s Journey, reflects this mission, as she aims to inspire young people to use their voices. Her lyrics often tackle themes like overcoming self-doubt and proving critics wrong.
Looking ahead, Hev is set to perform at several shows this year, continuing to grow as an artist. With her unique sound and empowering message, Hev is certainly an artist to watch in 2025.
