R&B singer, songwriter and producer ASTN expertly straddles the line between pop and R&B on his addictive new single “Be So Cruel.” Listen HERE via Warner Records. Watch the suspensful video HERE. The bouncy track, chronicles the imperfect process of letting someone go with anecdotal lyrics and buttery vocals.
ASTN begins “Be So Cruel” by insisting that he has moved on. “She’s spicy just the way I like my Thai food,” he croons. “For a minute I forgot all about you.” However, he didn’t realize how he would feel when he saw his ex with someone new. “And I hope this breaks y’all up,” he sings on the melodic chorus. “I’m not crazy, but I might be for you — don’t treat me so cruel.” It’s a refreshingly honest and unfiltered account of post break-up jealousy.
