Mike Posner says his new album is about ‘pain, loss’
‘A Real Good Kid’ deals with his father’s death and a failed relationship
Singer-songwriter and producer Mike Posner has released a new album, ‘A Real Good Kid’, which is about pain and loss.
“This album is about pain, loss and the joy that comes with it. It’s about getting a call that my father has a tumour the size of a tangerine in his forehead. It’s about selling my house in Los Angeles to move into the house I grew up in to help him die,” he said in a statement.
“It’s about falling in love after his death. It’s about having that relationship fall apart and not really knowing why. It’s about somehow finding peace through it all.”
His third album includes newly released tracks ‘Move On’, ‘Stuck in the Middle’, and ‘Song About You’ — which find him coming to terms with the circumstances that real life sent his way.
