The pop recording "Newsflash!" from the Philippines is part of an artist's body of work that began with an urgent quake from the innermost core of her being. Her songwriting remains as intimate as ever, and the recording reverberates with the hard-earned wisdom of a young woman who charges dauntlessly towards her dreams but can still spare a laugh if she stumbles. The title suggests that something is about to happen, evoking the promise of something new when it isn’t real yet, hanging rich and sweet in the air. This millisecond moment in time, suspended in vast suggestion, offers every opportunity for a shift in trajectory, whether small or seismic.
