NO LOVE FOR THE MIDDLE CHILD UNLEASHES GUT-WRENCHING NEW SINGLE “BROKEN WINGS”

Ethereal and experimental, No Love For The Middle Child has a rich musical history. His upbringing as a classically trained multi-instrumentalist evolved into a blossoming career, marked by collaborations with artists like MGK and tours with Mod Sun. Now, his latest single, “Broken Wings,” tells the story of a fallen angel. It’s stunning, heartbreaking, and human.

No Love borrows from the SoundCloud emo-rap era, while expanding upon it. Truthfully, much of the music of that time stagnated post-Peep. However, some artists, like No Love, effectively modernized it by telling authentic stories. In his case, this includes the use of boundary-pushing lyricism, grandiose harmonies, and stunning composition.

People often wonder if the grass is greener on the other side — sometimes quite literally.

No Love confronts this assumption, suggesting that “heaven is just real life,” full of the same humanized monotony we experience on earth.

Though dark, it’s not all bleak. There seems to be a tinge of optimism throughout each note, especially as he says, “can’t keep getting let down if the glass is half-empty.”

Sure, life on earth and in heaven may be monotonous, but heaven could be real-life, too. The song is full of double-meanings, making it an intriguing listen from start to finish. “Broken Wings” is both sonically stunning and thematically captivating, prompting listeners to think more deeply about what they’re hearing.
