Charli XCX and PC Music collaborator SOPHIE is back with "It's Okay To Cry", her first new (solo) music since 2015's immense Product.
SOPHIE co-directs the striking, intimate visuals for "It's Okay To Cry" with Nicholas Harwood - the song itself is a huge sonic departure from the super-synthetic hyperpop offerings of the Product era. This is a heartfelt ballad with tinges of R&B and '80s pop, with vocal power in spades and a familiar dose of SOPHIE's signature sleek electro for good measure.
SOPHIE debuts her new live show on 24 October in Los Angeles at the Red Bull Music Academy Festival. Find out more.
"It's Okay To Cry" is out 23 October.
