Mami Moon Shares New Song “Trying!”
Back in January, Los Angeles-based alt-pop singer-songwriter Mami Moon released her long-awaited debut EP “THE COST OF LIVING”.
The EP contains 5-track, featuring the pain, the warm and emotions of a relationship in love.
Following the EP, she dropped a new song “Trying!” on May 22nd.
She wrote about painful and struggle of her life like a rollercoaster of emotions. “Writing this song was long overdue. Both of my parents are middle eastern so growing up with forigen parents, a lot of my actions and choices were forigen to them,” explains Mami Moon in a statement. “The tumultuous nature of our relationship had always had an effect on my mental health and behavior. I had been wanting to write about them for a while, but I felt like I had to respect their privacy. Vulnerability and transparency is very important to me as an artist, so I’m glad I came around to freeing myself of creative limitations.”
She continues, “After my mother stopped speaking to me because I got some tattoos, I was really struggling emotionally and financially. I wrote this song during that time and every day felt like a painful struggle. In this song I discuss what those days looked and felt like. A couple months later, I received a text from her that read 'Is this a cry for help?' and that's what got the ball rolling with the hook.”
