"It has been definitely a dream come true for me as music is my soul manifested into a passion. To be able to put out my soul into the world is definitely a great honor for me."
- Melizza
We are all too familiar with the story of a playboy toying with a woman's heart and breaking it, often we see this trope in movies, songs, and many other forms of media. It's a trope played frequently; a boy with charming features and an all too perfect smile. This new song is an anthem to all the girls who have been a victim of this kind of banality. Upcoming female Pop singer Melizza Jimenez otherwise known by her stage name MELIZZA, is no stranger to us here at Beat This PH. She's been featured previously for her song "Always", and is now being featured once again for her newest anthem "Killer Boy".
The song "Killer Boy", as the title suggests, speaks on the trope of a playboy with sparkling eyes, a killer smile, and witty replies. It's an anthem for all the women that have fallen victim to boys that match this description and have had their hearts broken after falling in love. The song is the other side to this story we have heard too often, this time the girl knows the players' game plan and knows all too well not to fall for this type of guy.
The song was produced by MELIZZA herself alongside Marcus Davis JR. The indie-pop feel of its production is brought about by the upbeat tone of the song. The indie-pop vibe is complemented by the funky tone of the track giving that feeling of nostalgia to '80s music with a modern twist. MELIZZA's past release together with this current one certainly brings a Clairo and Billie Ellish feel, with production and vocals the Philippines has not yet been so exposed to.
Despite having only released two singles, MELIZZA already has notable achievements under her belt as an artist. Her latest single is her debut release as an artist with Warner Music PH, working alongside Marcus Davis JR who has previously worked with artists such as Billy Crawford and Sarah Geronimo. She is also an artist under ABS-CBN, starring in movies like Barcelona: A Love Untold, and TV series like MMK and FPJ's Ang Probinsyano.
MELIZZA has stayed consistent, her previous release "Always" together with her latest '"Killer Boy" brings that nostalgic '80s sound to a modern audience through her genre of indie-pop. Make sure to keep an eye out for this rising talent, by staying up to date through her different socials.
