Raisa Attends Full of Spirit in New Song Titled 'It's Okay To Not Be Okay'

Kapanlagi.com - Through It's Okay To Not Be Okay, Raisa inspires listeners to always be optimistic. This song conveys the message that it’s okay to not always be okay, and invites us to celebrate every process of growth.

In this song, Raisa appears like a true friend and a companion who is always ready to cheer up her listeners. A friend who is always ready to listen without judgment, who always celebrates every growth, no matter how small or large.

This song is perfect for a motivational playlist, making listeners feel good to start their day. It also brings listeners back to Raisa's energetic songs like Teka Teki, Could It Be, and You.

"I want this song to be a reminder that it’s okay to not always be okay. We all deserve to feel a variety of emotions. This song is like a love letter from a friend to oneself and to everyone who has ever felt not good enough. I want everyone to know that they are valuable and deserve to be happy. Collaborating with Gusti made the process of creating this song very enjoyable and it flowed naturally. Gusti really understands what I want to convey and has managed to create a very fitting atmosphere with the lyrics," said Raisa.

"In creating this song, I wasn't looking for any specific inspiration. I was more focused on responding to the musical vision that Raisa and Lafa had built. This collaboration feels like a musical conversation that flows naturally during the workshop," Gusti revealed.

"I have wanted to invite Gusti Irwan Wibowo & Lafa to collaborate with Raisa since last year. I was sure they would bring a different color to Raisa. It just happened at the beginning of this year. And it turns out, Gusti is the missing puzzle piece I was waiting for Raisa," said Adryanto Pratono, CEO of JUNI Records.

1. Bridge to New Album

Raisa's stage backing vocal duo, Meikelin Yopitania S (Eckel) and Feli Wattimena (Feli), are also an important point. "Their soul & groove character makes this song feel very prominent right away. It’s impossible not to dance," she continued.

"It's okay in terms of musical approach, Yaya and I wanted to create something that feels good when played in the morning, for a journey. Like the excitement of starting something or starting the day. I think that feeling is what we want to capture when we play this song. I want to keep this song warm and intimate with an approach of organic sounds," Lafa expressed.

It's Okay To Not Be Okay is also a bridge for Raisa towards her new album. All preparations have been made for the album, which is planned to be released in the middle of this year.

It's Okay To Not Be Okay is now available for KLovers to listen to today via digital streaming platforms such as Apple Music, Langitmusik, Spotify, YouTube & Youtube Music, and others.
