Today we want to spotlight a new single from Hazlett titled “tell me something.” With a more melancholic tone, Hazlett delivers a track that feels emotionally weighted from the first note. His deeply introspective lyrics showcase the substance of his songwriting, as he explores the emotional confusion and quiet grief that often follow the end of a meaningful relationship. The message — that we’re rarely prepared for what comes after love — is poignant and thoughtfully articulated.
Hazlett displays his artistry with striking vulnerability, offering a perspective that feels raw and refreshingly honest. While heartbreak songs often focus on the initial pain of separation, Hazlett shifts the lens to what happens in the aftermath — the identity shifts, the quiet moments of longing, and the emotional reckoning that lingers. It’s this distinct angle that makes the song not just relatable, but resonant.
It’s always refreshing to see an artist with Hazlett’s lyrical ambition connect so genuinely with a wide audience. The track’s crisp production and haunting sonic palette elevate the experience, but it’s Hazlett’s personal touch that leaves a lasting impact.
He wrote on Instagram: “I hope you make it your own. I hope you find a little of yourself in it. I hope you’re liking the new era. Lots of love, Haz.”
