With his third single, "TikTok Girl," Nashville-based musician Empty Pinata is making his unique sound even more distinct. The song is a soft, dreamy look at young people today. The song mixes soft bedroom pop sounds with a psychedelic undertow. It captures the overwhelming whirl of crushes, trends, and the bittersweet haze of growing up in a world where everything fits together.
With "TikTok Girl," you can listen to music while driving down a deserted road at night with the windows down, smoke curling around the neon lights, and your mind drifting between heartbreak and old memories. A lot of people can relate to the song Empty Piñata because it's about being stuck on a girl who is too into her digital world. The track is also talking about the tension we all feel between wanting to connect with other people and wanting to be on our screens.
There is also a sarcastic sense of humour under the sadness. Empty Pinata is good at showing how hard it is to tell the difference between escape and everyday life. The result is a coming-of-age story in lo-fi beats and dreamy textures that feels both personal and universal, both here and on the album that will come out soon after.
The music in the song goes from laid-back beats to woozy synths, making you feel like you're in a daze at night. It's not just playing, and it doesn't play; it clings like the light from a phone screen in the dark. With "TikTok Girl," it skilfully makes him more than just another voice in the bedroom pop scene. He is putting together stories for the scrolling generation, like this one: that small things can turn into feelings that last longer than our attention span; that there is a heart behind every post.
