The EQUAL X Spotify Singles recordings is part of Spotify’s EQUAL initiative to uplift female artists and creators in the music industry. It is in combination with Spotify Singles, an exclusive program of Spotify that provides artists with the opportunity to record new versions of their own songs, the songs of the artist they love, or an original song. ‘Oh Sorry Ya’ is co-produced by SunMi herself and Los Angeles-based female songwriting duo LYRE. The song is expected to catches the ears of listeners with a heavy, yet rhythmic baseline from the beginning. Unlike the serious story in the lyrics, ‘Oh Sorry Ya’ introduces the danceable retro-vibe that listeners can get lost into. ‘Oh Sorry Ya’ is an extension of ‘Borderline’, the sixth track of SunMi’s third mini-album ‘1/6’, that talks about her story from deep inside her heart, dealing with the conflict between the old SunMi and the new SunMi. The vocals play a variation as if two SunMis have a conversation with each other, which presents many different sides of SunMi at the same time.It’s an honor to be part of this meaningful project on behalf of artists from Asia… The collaboration process with the female producer team LYRE was inspiring, and I am happy to present such a good result. I hope many people listen to this track.
