Nick Hakim has shared a hypnotic new track called "QADIR."

The alluring song is the first preview of the singer's upcoming album WILL THIS MAKE ME GOOD, which he confirmed is out May 15 via ATO Records. The song arrived with a video directed by Nelson Nance.

The song is an ode to a late friend, a reminder to check in on your loved ones. "If I really sink into a recording, I don't want it to end," says Hakim. "['QADIR'] is repetitive and hypnotizing, like a trance—that's intentional. The song is my ode to him. It's my attempt to relate to how he must have been feeling."
