Selena Gomez may be dating The Weeknd, but that didn’t stop her from releasing the brand new breakup single “It Ain’t Me.”
She first sared the record on Twitter, insisting, “finally here!”
Produced by Norwegian producer Kygo, the uptempo and boombastic “It Ain’t Me” highlights a tumultuous breakup, a feeling close to Gomez after her public split from Justin Beiber.
“Somewhere along the lines/We stopped seeing eye to eye/You were staying out all night/And I had enough,” Gomez sings in the lyrics. “No, I don’t wanna know where you been or where you’re going/But I know I won’t be home/And you’ll be on your own.”
“It Ain’t Me” by Selena Gomez is an energetic pop track with a tropical house vibe that tells a story of resilience and moving on from a broken relationship. The song opens with a light acoustic guitar riff, creating a gentle introduction that contrasts with the pulsating electronic beats that follow. This blend of acoustic and electronic elements gives the song a fresh and contemporary feel.
Selena Gomez’s vocals are emotive yet strong, perfectly capturing the sense of empowerment that runs through the lyrics. As the song progresses, she sings about the end of a relationship and coming to terms with the realization that it’s time to let go. The lyrics focus on themes of self-discovery and independence, emphasizing the importance of recognizing when a relationship is no longer healthy or supportive. The chorus is catchy and memorable, with a rhythm that encourages listeners to sing along.
The production, crafted by Kygo, adds a touch of tropical flair with bright synths and driving percussion, providing a danceable beat that contrasts with the more introspective lyrics. The song builds to an energetic drop that makes it a popular choice for parties and dance floors, while the overall message resonates with anyone who’s faced a difficult breakup.
Overall, “It Ain’t Me” is an uplifting and empowering track that combines infectious melodies with a meaningful narrative, making it a standout in the pop and dance music scene. The combination of Gomez’s expressive vocals and Kygo’s vibrant production creates a dynamic and engaging listening experience.
Gomez was recently spotted kissing The Weeknd, who has some seemingly keen lyrics of his own on the new song “Some Way” by Nav.
“I think your girl, think your girl, fell in love with me,” and “I just took that chick, and I know you feelin’ some way” are a few of the lyrics he sings.
In related news, TMZ reports that Gomez picked up the $30,000 tab for her new boyfriend’s birthday bash at Dave & Buster’s in Hollywood on Monday (Feb. 13). Abel’s guest list for the party included A$AP Rocky, French Montana, 2 Chainz, Big Sean, Travis Scott, Migos, A$AP Rocky, Quavo, and Bryson Tiller. Gomez couldn’t attend because she was in New York for Fashion Week.
