Kanwal shares dirty pop anthem “Tuggin’ Me Back”

Kanwal is a unique artist on the rise who blends a variety of genres including alt pop, electronic pop, funk, R&B and more for a thrilling sonic journey. His only second released single ever, and first studio release is the inverted pop banger “Tuggin’ Me Back”.

“Tuggin’ Me Back” instantly hooks the listener in with a funky bass riff. The song also features heightened melodies, swirling atmospheric synths and distorted vocals for a must listen bop. Kanwal shares, “I wanted this one to feel like you’re listening to a radio pop song, but in ‘the upside down’. It’s a song on the edge, and to me it reflects the idea that we always live on the edge of our socially accepted selves.” The meaning of the song parallels the musicality of it, the balance of expressing emotions while also appeasing those around us.

Kanwal is a special artist who has had a unique upbringing. As the son of Indian/Sikh father and a Russian/Jewish mother, the songwriter was exposed to a variety of cultures and even spent two months working with refugees in Athens Greece. All of these experiences influenced the genre-defying music he creates today. “Tuggin’ Me Back” is a must listen!
