MIVA, an independent producer, songwriter, and artist from Montreal, steps forward with striking clarity on her new single "Traction," which came out recently as a preview for her upcoming "For The Record" EP, which will be out on December 1. MIVA takes years of inner conflict, healing, and change and turns them into a soundscape that feels both timeless and urgent in just a few minutes.
"Traction" is like wrestling with yourself in the dark and finally finding the strength to turn on the light. MIVA's song captures the push-and-pull between doubt and self-belief with brutal honesty. It has a heavy emotional weight and an undeniable groove. The song's heart is her journey through sobriety and mental renewal. It's steady, open, and not afraid to show its bruises.
The warmth that comes from mixing genres in "Traction" makes it magnetic right away. MIVA combines the sultry ease of R&B, the deep soul of jazz, and the sharp, grounded edge of hip-hop. The sound is like a confession that ends with a win. There are bold trumpets in the arrangement, but they are not there for decoration, they are there to make statements, musical affirmations that reflect the story's strength.
It feels like each layer was thought out. Each rhythm feels lived in. Every shift in melody mirrors the process of an individual rebuilding themselves from the core. "Traction" is a moment of rebirth caught on film. It reminds us that being open doesn't make an artist weaker, but it makes their voice stronger. With "Traction," MIVA plants it firmly, showing that turning pain into music can be powerful.
