New York, NY (Top40 Charts) The latest single, "Kite," from Swedish pop sensation Benjamin Ingrosso is out now. The song was co-written by Benjamin himself, along with Anya (Kylie Minogue), Jon Shave (Britney Spears, Zayn), Salem Al-Fakir, and Vincent Pontare, and produced by Jon Shave and Vargas & Lagola (Avicii, Madonna, Sia, A$AP Rocky, Lady Gaga).
Seamlessly fusing classic Swedish pop and soul from the 70's (ABBA) with contemporary musical styles, particularly those from the late 90s (Robyn), "Kite" is a feel-good anthem that embodies the fleeting bliss of a new romance.
"For me, 'Kite' is about the first time you meet someone new and the feeling you get that anything is possible, the euphoria and freedom you feel when you meet someone who makes you feel like you're soaring high above everyone else," says Benjamin. "But it can also be about anything that makes you feel alive. It can be about life being a party and daring to test your wings, about being young and having fun, but also about falling in love and losing love."
The single is the first glimpse at his yet-to-be-announced forthcoming album.
