Newcomer Cj Pandit has managed to turn a moment of self-doubt and crisis in confidence into a wonderful new pop cut called "If It Hurts, It's Healing." And yeah, we're loving it.

"I was going through a yearly/monthly/weekly crisis of confidence and identity and just decided to live in it for a bit, to see what I could find and put together," says Pandit. "This song was it. Grief is just a version of love breaking down, and sometimes you've gotta let things go.

The singer adds: "Sometimes, you have to stare in the mirror to see what's going on. If it hurts, it's healing is a little adventure into self discovery and mourning your former self, or something that's been eating you up and defining your character for a big chunk of time."

"Grief is just a version of love breaking down," Pandit declares on the massive, extremely catchy chorus. It's the latest preview of his upcoming +44 EP.
