ROREY captures the raw intricacies of a mental health struggle in her mesmerising new single, “Soho Grand”. The song weaves haunting melodies with ethereal vocals, reflecting the emotional labyrinth she experienced after her 2021 bipolar disorder diagnosis. With its hypnotic instrumentals, the track balances a dreamlike quality with a sobering narrative, inviting one to peer into a deeply personal yet relatable moment of vulnerability.
Instead of sugar coating her story, ROREY embraces the uncertainty of healing with fearless authenticity.
“I think we’ve all been at a place where we wondered if things would ever get better. That feeling kept me from seeking help because, for a while, I thought, What’s the point if it never does?”
Candidly addressing the hopelessness that once held her back from seeking help, her journey, shaped by years of commitment and the understanding that recovery isn’t linear, adds depth to the song’s message. By encouraging one to “trust the process,” she crafts a heartfelt anthem for those searching for light amid darkness.
“Soho Grand” lulls one in with its atmosphere that creates a world that’s simultaneously fragile and resolute. The swirling instrumentals and ROREY’s ghostly vocal delivery coalesce into a sound that mirrors the paradoxes of mental health. Anxiety laced with hope, chaos that gradually settles into clarity.
“Soho Grand” is an experience and a window into ROREY’s story that offers comfort to anyone navigating their own.
