Ravive Releases New Song “Social Shit”
Back in March, former American alt-rock band VISTA vocalist and singer-songwriter Hope Vista released her solo debut single “Sahara” as Ravive.
The song was a pulsing, ghostly dream, painted the visual of walking through the desert to try and reach a place of security.
Following the debut single, she released the second single called “Social Shit” on November 19, 2021,
This time, the song draws the dangers of social media curation and assumption.
Ravive explained of the song, “Every feed you see is carefully curated. Photos are selected mindfully. Edits are made cautiously. Words are typed out with either no hesitation, or excess hesitation. The feeds that you see across all social platforms are put together with one specific goal in mind - for people to see what you want them to see. Online personas are often not fully and truly reflective of who that user is in real time. There are online personas, and realism. Many people tend to create assumptions about who another person is with a simple click and scroll. But the judgmental nature of that behavior is dangerous. Who a human is, and specifically how they act offline, in the flesh, is where true analyses of character should be built - not through specifically curated feeds. 'Social Shit' digs into that, and the ethics of social media curation.”- source : Apple Music
