Nikki Nicole has a way with transforming personal experiences into moments that everyone can relate to, and her new single, "Confidential," is no exception. The Pop-paced song describes the love-privacy dichotomy, soaking in a current of the modern struggle of being emotionally open in a public-obsessed world.
Courtesy of Tone & Jonk of SLMM Productions, "Confidential" is an icy, smooth number that serves as a landscape for Nikki Nicole's open-hearted vocals, which weave the song's delicate tale, produced by Keith Alexander and Nikki Nicole for Groove Team Entertainment. There's a purpose for every note she plays, with the audience being led into a private world that she's asking them to share without quite giving all of the secrets away. The mix here, from GTE Studios, and its mastering by Grammy-winner Chris Gehringer, gives the song a bright, radio-ready shine while never losing that sense of it being an intimate core.
"When you're pursuing a career as an artist, there's this unspoken pressure to make every detail of your life public," Nikki Nicole says. But I've learned how sacred it is to keep certain moments just for yourself. That's what this song is about, the desire to explore something new with someone and keep it between you while you figure out what it really means." That feeling permeates the track's production, establishing a sense of trust and intimacy with you.
"Confidential" is a sweet reminder that there's more than a bit of truth to the age-old adage. Some of the best stories should be kept close to your vest, even in an age that fosters oversharing. With her trademark confessional storytelling, Nikki Nicole reaffirms that she's not only making music, but giving us a piece of her view and asking us to think about our own private moments of love and self-discovery.
