Chasing love is tiring... Atlanta-raised Darren Waller, a tight end for the New York Giants, continues to make his mark in music with the release of a music video for his latest single, Who Knew (Her Perspective). Produced by Fowler, the song seamlessly blends elements of rock, R&B, and hip-hop, offering a fresh perspective from the former NFL Pro Bowler on his past relationships. Waller’s musical talents shine through in this heartfelt track while resonating the emotional complexities of intimacy and self-reflection. Waller explains:

The song is written from the perspective of past relationship partners. It sounds like I’m getting my heart broken, but I really wrote it from the perspective of women who have tried to love me. I’ve struggled with intimacy in romantic relationships my whole life, and I recognize the toll it has taken on the lovers I’ve been close to. Essentially, I’m telling myself, from the damage I’ve done, that it’s imperative for me to heal the wounds in my life I’ve been avoiding by seeking relationships. The e video finds me walking in ‘her’ shoes—begging the partner to heal, expressing pain and frustration, ultimately getting hurt in the end. As the song is an attempt to see things from the woman’s perspective, the video is an extension of that, ending with me being alone and wondering why they wounded me and left me there.

Earmilk praised the track, noting:

Sleek, rising vocal lines and crisp, infectious percussion that create a refreshing backdrop for Waller's poised, introspective verses. A potent, heartfelt new release with true-to-life lyricism and a stripped-back, down-to-earth approach, along with an engaging, minimalistic new visual.

The new song is a part of an upcoming full-length album set to be released later this year. Waller announced the project with the release of Faith Test, which centers on self-discovery and being tested in a world of instant gratifications.
