Uh-oh
I just took two pills
I can feel them
Think they're about to kick in

I just cracked the seal
Run the beat up
Plugged into
The system

Tell me what is real
I hear your voice
I don't know
What you're thinking

I give into your world
You make the choice
Tell me
What to believe in

And I don't think it's anybody's business
I've been getting worse
I'm doing drugs
And they all see me bleeding

I'm tired, hurting
I don't need forgiveness
Every time they try to help me
I make sure I never listen

There's a rope around my throat
I try to breathe
And I choke
I never learned how to cope

Your honesty hurts the most
It's fucked up
You already know
The pain had so much time to grow

I suffer through another night
Love and pain it's all combined
Never thought
You'd see me cry

But like reflections
Do as I
You can hurt me
All you want

But you know that I'll be nice
Even though I want to die
What a shame, I'll waste my life
Do it right before your eyes

I'll never know what you want from me
Guess you saw what you wanted to
A push and pull it's so bittersweet
I fell in love with the thought of you

You lit me up like kerosene
Remember how cold you felt?
Remember what you did to me?
Remember what I said to you?

Remember how you'd spin me round?
How you'd let me fall apart?
How we'd spend our summer nights?
How i had your blood on my arms?

Oh, what a pointless silly life
Oh, now we have all this time apart

But like reflections
Do as I
You can hurt me
All you want

But you know that I'll be nice
Even though I want to die
What a shame, I'll waste my life
Do it right before your eyes

Be Nice

“I have been able to find an entire world full of things I can constantly explore and keep evolving with, and I want people to feel like they can do this life shit,” she said.

“It gets very hard and sometimes you don’t wanna keep going, but there’s constant reminders in life to support yourself in getting back to who you are. The people and energy around you are so important, I feel so connected with the people in my life and they hold great importance in my priorities – That’s Why I Luv Them. 
That’s how you love yourself too.”

The messaging is told through a mixture of alternative, soul, indie, R&B and shoegaze soundscapes, further cementing Cherry as an artist who doesn’t bind themselves to one singular sound.  
With the distinctive, personalised styles of fellow artists Tahkoe, Gian Santoro, Guano C, G Rebel, Dracosrevenge, and Annabelle Scobie, THAT’S WHY I LUV YOU dives into sonic waters that are radical, unorthodox, and simultaneously familiar. Additional production by Guano C, emjaysoul and Rype herself drives this sentiment home.

“I feel connected to these artists musically which allows me to create specialised palettes regarding soundscape and genre, to allow their flair and musical talent to be absolutely pedestalled and pivoted to the top…I will always be completely intertwined with the music they make and the stuff we create together.”

If you crave the same sentimentalism of Phoebe Bridgers, the eccentricity of Bjork and the unabashed pop-allure of Ariana Grande, THAT’S WHY I LUV YOU is the gift that keeps on giving.

Joeys Can’t Go Backwards” is a fresh new single from Joey, blending [genre: e.g. indie pop / alt rock / hip hop] vibes with heartfelt lyrics about growth, nostalgia, and moving forward.

Recorded and launched in Brisbane, this track captures the energy and emotion of a city that’s always evolving. Whether you’re cruising through the Valley at night or chilling by the river, “Joeys Can’t Go Backwards” is the soundtrack to those moments you can’t repeat — but never forget

Joeys Can't Go Backwards

den i go n count it up lol

Brisbane hip-hop shapeshifter Joey drops his latest single “@ninajirachi,” a neon-lit flex track inspired by the dreamy, hyperpop-adjacent energy of Nina Jirachi’s world. Blending bouncy hip-hop drums, glossy electronic textures, and Joey’s signature cheeky Brissy personality, this track bridges the gap between the Valley nightlife, internet-core aesthetics, and Australia’s rising alt-pop scene.

Built for late-night drives through Brisbane, sweaty club floors, and anyone deep in the @ninajirachi universe, the track delivers a hook that sticks instantly. Joey taps into the playful, futuristic vibe that Nina’s fans love — but twists it into his own style, keeping it raw, rhythmic, and unmistakably Aussie.

With Brisbane’s music scene exploding, “@ninajirachi” positions Joey as one of the city’s most exciting genre-benders. If you're into Nina Jirachi, Ninajirachi-adjacent pop, alt-rap, glitchy electronic textures, or the new wave of Australian artists, this track is for you.

Hit play, drop a repost, and let Joey teleport you straight into the Brisbane x internet era.

Brisbane artist Joey slows the pace and lets the mood breathe on “Sway.” Smooth, hypnotic, and effortlessly cool, this track blends laid-back hip hop rhythms with a subtle melodic bounce that pulls you in from the first bar.

“Sway” captures that in-between moment — late nights, city lights, headphones on, moving with the rhythm rather than fighting it. Joey’s relaxed delivery and understated confidence sit perfectly over the production, making this one ideal for chill playlists, night drives, and repeat listens.

Rooted in Australian hip hop but built for a global audience, “Sway” shows Joey’s range as an artist who can shift gears without losing identity. If you’re into alternative rap, vibey hip hop, or emerging Brisbane artists carving their own lane, this track deserves a spot in your rotation.

Lock in, let it play through, and sway with it.
