#ComingUp: Emily Brooks Challenges Perceptions Of "Desire" & Forbidden Love

Written By: Big C

 

Singer-songwriter and self-taught music producer Emily Brooks returns with her latest single, Desire, a deeply moving anthem that delves into the complexities of longing and forbidden love. The track is a bold exploration of desire which challenges societal norms and religious beliefs. With haunting melodies and powerful lyrics, Brooks touches on the universal experience of yearning. While pushing listeners toward self-realization the single questions the boundaries society places on love and identity. Explain the deeper message behind the track, Brook Shares:

I wrote the song to cope with my own longing, and I co-produced it with Matt Chiaravalle. Growing up in the church, I was surrounded by the condemnation of the LGBTQ community. I wanted to challenge those deeply ingrained beliefs by exploring the idea of forbidden love from a female perspective within the church.

Co-produced by Matt Chiaravalle, “Desire” combines Brooks' signature blend of classic pop and rock influences from the 60s, 70s, and 90s. The track is set to get a visual upgrade with an upcoming music video, releasing on October 3, 2024. Showcasing her fearless approach to songwriting and spirituality, Brooks aims to revolutionize her work. Connect with Emily Brooks on Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and Spotify.
