After releasing her single “Peter Pan” this past May, Los Angeles-based artist Nikitaa found her songwriting style changing ever since she came out as gender-fluid as well as a lot of other things shifting around in her life too. She says, “I’ve just been in a lot of sessions figuring out what I want to write about for myself, and then also I’ve been writing for other folks recently, so that’s been most of my life for the past couple of months.”
Now, Nikitaa is out with a brand new single in the shape of the grittypop number “Throne.” The song is also accompanied by a striking music video in which Nikitaa is seen performing the song with a choreographed dance. In this interview with Rolling Stone India, the artist talks about the new track, making the video, what’s next and more. Read below.
When did work on “Throne” begin and how did the song come together?
