SINGAPORE — Hot on the heels of his explosive first track release of the year, eaJ makes sonic comeback with “merry go round,” a cinematic alt-pop confessional that finds him diving deeper into emotional turbulence with unflinching honesty and genre-defying flair.
Where “ruin my life” shimmered with glitchy textures and chronicled the intoxicating thrill of romantic self-destruction, “merry go round” spirals further into the chaos—capturing the relentless cycle of toxic love. Released via Position Music, the new track blends bedroom pop intimacy, moody synth-driven production, indie-rock angst, and sweeping cinematic alternative elements, making for an emotionally precise and sonically expansive hit.

It’s another bold step from an artist in constant evolution. Following a transformative 2024—touring stadiums with Imagine Dragons, headlining solo shows across Asia and North America, and releasing his soul-baring EP “when the rain stopped following me”—eaJ enters 2025 fully in command of his creative vision. Vulnerable, boundary-pushing, and fearless in his storytelling, he continues to defy categorization with a sound and identity that’s uniquely his own.
With more music on the way, a global fanbase growing, and a jam-packed year of releases, collaborations, and live shows ahead, eaJ is quickly proving to be one of the most compelling and unpredictable emerging voices in alt-pop.
