He has indicated that SHADOWBOX will delve into heavy themes, reflecting on personal experiences and challenges, particularly those related to love, heartbreak, and family support.
The lead single from the album, “drunk prayer,” has already been released, offering listeners a glimpse into the album’s darker themes and MAVI’s evolving sound. The production, crafted by Angelo Leroi, adds layers of complexity to the song, which has been described as a sobering narrative about alcohol and mortality.
