Indonesian pop-R&B artist Blingoutkid has released her cohesive, much-anticipated musical universe with her latest single, “Coffee In The Morning.” The track is a great template for an artist redefining confidence for an online generation, born out of a rigorous three-year artist incubation process based on rigorous songwriting discipline and a profound vocal refinement. Blingoutkid’s artistry is based on contrast: soft yet assertive, vulnerable yet controlled. It’s a successful transmutation of feeling “out of place” into an empowering creative safe haven.
