Twist Online : Tell us about your upcoming single “Shiloh and Safe sex”?
TheCollab : This song stems from real life situations. when dwelled upon brings back memories of a time in which loneliness played a factor in this song. The artist Shiloh dynasty invokes these emotions that are in this song. Feelings such as love, happiness, and a little bit of regret. These emotions fill his songs. Sometimes when you are involved with someone, knowing that you have feeling for another person, brings out that regret.In making this song we decided to focus more on the euphoric side of being involved romantically with a significant other. This is a song based off the thrills and chase to obtain the euphoria that one hopes to gain from their partner.we are excited about the project and are dropping the music video for the song in the month of May.
