ZØYA
Resilience, good vibes, and an irresistible urge to dance—that’s the essence of ‘It’s Alright,‘ the latest single by indie pop artist ZØYA. This electro-pop gem exudes joy from the first note.
With an ascending melody, steady beats, and reverb effects, the chorus immediately pulls listeners into its optimistic energy: “Everything’s gonna be alright / It’s gonna be just fine / It’s gonna be ok / No need to worry about a thing / Worry about nothin’ / Worry about nothin’.”
However, beneath this cheerful exterior lies a more profound narrative rooted in ZØYA’s struggles:
“In the first verse, I do share about my battle with anxiety as well as health issues that I’m going through at the moment. At the beginning of 2022, I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis (chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease), and the 1st verse describes that battle specifically,” the Belarus-born, Los Angeles-based artist explains.
Beyond her health journey, ZØYA expands the song’s scope with a powerful call for humanity to unite and create a better world. Lyrics like “Believers and preachers / Leaders and teachers / Together’s how / We gotta come around” resonate as both a social and political statement in a world deeply in need of healing.
Written by ZØYA, produced by Austin Cannon, mixed by Jérémy Hagry, and mastered by Adam Grover, ‘It’s Alright‘ aims to be an anthem of optimism despite life’s challenges.
With her distinctive raspy voice, ZØYA has built an impressive career. She’s headlined tours in both the United States and the UK, nearly reached one million Spotify streams with her hit ‘So Far Away,’ and garnered over 217K Instagram views for her song ‘This Is the End.’ But ZØYA’s success isn’t just about numbers—it’s about connection. Her fans are drawn to her authenticity and the uplifting message at the heart of her music.
