If you’re looking for a euphonious example of cinematic pop, Mauvey’s latest single “THE KING” resembles exactly that. His latest release comprises an empowering alt-pop anthem that blesses listeners with melodic lyricism, razor-sharp production and a mesmerizing bassline. 

Mauvey encapsulates his own sound and style of alternative hip-pop in this latest release. In his words, “Dissecting love inspires everything I create.” Themes of love, in all facets, shapes and sizes, is resembled across Mauvey’s catalogue. But this release stands out. His melodies unite to form correlations between rhythm and rhyme, with lyrics like “You don’t need a crown” and “Never bow down” symbolic of unity across genders and identities alike. Paired with resonant bass and mellow vocals, this track’s encapsulation of inclusivity and creativity is nothing short of perfection. 

As a proud advocate of equality, “THE KING” aims to tear apart the idealism that Kings, predominantly identifying as male, are the most respected of people. To Mauvey, “'THE KING' is a redistribution of power and respect to everyone, especially the immensely powerful women we have in our world.” The tune’s cinematic representation in the accompanying music video, starring Breeanne Brereton, highlights exactly that. Thematic examples of love, passion and empowerment create a distinct creative narrative that can be not only heard but also seen throughout. 

Listeners can expect great things from Mauvey moving through 2022. With a debut full-length album expected to arrive in fall 2022, anticipation is certainly building. We’re really excited to see what’s next!
