ROLE MODEL

“for the people in the back” is a song by ROLE MODEL, released on May 27th, 2020, via Interscope Records. The song premiered on Zane Lowe’s Beats 1 Radio on Apple Music before its release.

The song seems to be an ode to being independent and being on your own. It’s about being comfortable with being yourself and not having anyone else or relying on anyone else. You learned to be alone peacefully and happily and anyone who’s there to ruin that should stay away since you’re better on your own.

It was a week where I ended a lot of really shitty relationships that were just mentally beating the shit out of me. There’s an underlying tone of acceptance. I had a burst of confidence, which is brand new. I want to hear people scream this song back to me.“ – ROLE MODEL via DIY Magazine.
