Rapper Chris Gabo Releases 'He Would'

Showing off his vulnerable side, Latinx artist Chris Gabo is back with the release of his newest anthem "He Would". Exploring sexual fantasies and queer lust, Chris delivers a transparent sense of longing for someone else while also maintaining a committed relationship. Written while he was dating an ex, Chris offers an authentic and frankly, relatable message that many people grapple with while in serious relationships. Dancing around the idea of being with somebody else, his emotional exploration threatened his former relationship and now, he's ready to let the world in to witness the creative inspiration behind one of his catchiest hits yet. The dynamic visual for the track takes things to new heights; Chris's visuals always offer a very up close and personal glimpse so that viewers feel the true emotion behind his complex lyrical rhyme schemes. The unique settings and color palette create a high level pop star environment that blends well with his laid back beat and smooth vocal delivery.

"Me and these fantasies are gon' have to make peace, I might, just have to put locks / On this door while I sleep, Cuz there's only two names, Two names on this lease" ~ He Would

One consistent theme in all of Chris's tracks is the perpetual wrestling match with identity. In his previous hit "One of Those", we learned about the complexities that come with feeling misunderstood. Because of its relatability, the fight song was a hit with fans from all over the world. Prior to that, "Hype Man" explored the juxtaposition of who we are as humans versus who we need to be to survive. Uniquely, learning about Chris's own identity has helped fans to explore and therefore learn more about their own.
