Pop-R&B singer-songwriter IDMAN releases her new single and video “Good Life (2022)” via Arista Records. Produced by GRAMMY award-winning producer Khris Riddick-Tynes of The Rascals, in this breakup anthem, IDMAN reflects on a recent tumultuous relationship and hopes it will bring healing to listeners:
“Good Life” is the breakup song I was almost too embarrassed to write. It’s okay to not want to root on the people who hurt us. It’s okay to feel bitter and pathetic. It’s also not okay to just stay there either. Both things can be true. Bad things don’t always happen to bad people, and sometimes we have to watch the people who’ve broken us the most, win loudly and publicly – and it’s more than okay to feel fucked by the universe.
“I stand behind how I was feeling when I wrote it and even though a couple lines still make me cringe knowing I’m sharing this with the world, I know that I’m not alone in feeling these feelings. The song is redemptive too because in the end, I still never lost hope in the belief that my wins were coming too.
“I hope anyone who’s ever had to watch their shitty exes, and in some cases, their abusers succeed, knows that their distaste and hurt feelings are valid and justified. This song was instrumental in my healing, and I truly hope that it finds the people who it can hold in the same ways it has held me.” – IDMAN
