A moment of painful catharsis: when the little things add up to something that can no longer be ignored, and we all at once know that freedom is the only choice, however difficult.

UK artist Nick Wilson has had over 55 million streams across Spotify alone, and he is just getting started. His latest release "Say It Now" was produced by Kingdoms, and is his most personal song yet.

A sense of raw emotion - and an instinct for seeking the truth, wherever it may lead - informs this wistful and melodic electro-pop burner. The resolution is always bittersweet, and the decision can hurt more than the state of unknowing, when two people are ultimately wrong for each other but have already spent too much time trying to make it work. Nick Wilson delivers a beautiful vocal performance that treads lightly between the highly-produced world of electro and the heart-forward tradition of soul-pop. Say It Now is a moment of painful catharsis: when the little things add up to something that can no longer be ignored, and we all at once know that freedom is the only choice, however difficult.

I'd be lying if I said I lost my faith in you
Oh but I don't want to be something that you just hold on to
