Indie-pop artist Baby Queen surprise announced the track yesterday (19 July) in a collaborative post with the Heartstopper Instagram account.
Baby Queen (real name Bella Latham) is premiering the new single live on the Heartstopper Instagram page today at 4pm BST. ‘We Can Be Anything’ is the follow-up to her recent single ‘Dream Girl’, which represented a new era for the South African singer and was her biggest streaming launch to date.
Both tracks offer a taste of her eagerly awaited forthcoming debut album – details of which are still to be revealed. Elaborating on the powerful sentiment behind the single, she says, “I’ve been having a prolonged existential crisis for the better part of the past 5 years and would consider myself to be a nihilist in many ways, which has made being alive quite bleak at times.
I think human beings really crave purpose but there is ultimately no clear-cut reason we’re here and if there is one, we’re just not intelligent enough to figure it out. “Despite it all, life is beautiful and I think our lack of purpose and our insignificance gives us the greatest level of freedom.
