Here is a chill, pop track for your Sunday evening. Nashville singer/songwriter/producer Mokita is here with ‘Down’. We’ve heard of love anthems in music, but this one is a simple love letter in song. For all those struggling out there that need a good song to cry to and let things go, take a look at this one.
The piano melody is everything that plays in the background. It brings the whole mood together. Coupled with Mokita’s soft voice, it is perfect for listening to with dim lights. Perfect for listening and drinking wine to at night. This song shows that mental health struggles are real, and that is something that isn’t always addressed in the music industry. Too often, artists have to make new music and stay on top of crowd trends. What does it mean to make music that is truly theirs and can still please their audience? These taboo topics are something that Mokita brings to his songwriting with thoughtful clarity and awareness, as he has suffered mental health issues for years.
John-Luke Carter is the man behind the moniker and a true stalwart to the industry. He dropped a successful debut EP ‘4201’ in 2019, and amassed over 200M+ streams across his releases. At 2.2M monthly listeners on Spotify alone, he even produces remixes for Maggie Rogers, G-Eazy and Daya. Plus! He has co-written songs for Zac Brown Band, Loote, Ella Vos, and Stephen Puth. Now that is something to look out for. Check out the music video for this that’s out now!
