HANNAH GRAE RELEASES BRAND NEW SINGLE “JADED”
Speaking about “Jaded,” Hannah Grae says: “Jaded will always be one of the most special songs to me. I wanted to return back to the singer/songwriter tone of my older content on YouTube and TikTok and write about something that I found really difficult to deal with. Jaded was the last song I wrote for this project and by this point, I was so used to playing a character in my songs. I loved that I could show the different edges of my personality in my music and kind of use them as shields. But for Jaded, I needed to be honest and come to terms with the fact that I had lost someone I thought was a great friend. It tackles the feeling of inferiority in friendships and how someone else’s disposition can really reflect on your own. The honesty and candidness of Jaded are something I’ve taken into my writing since then.”
