Lutalo – I Figured

Lutalo returns with a standalone single, “I Figured,” a track that dives into the emotional turbulence of love, lust, and the spaces between. Following the success of his debut album The Academy, Lutalo shifts gears, exploring a more introspective and atmospheric sound while maintaining the vivid storytelling that defined his previous work.

On The Academy, Lutalo tackled the complexities of the American Dream with a keen sociological lens. Now, with “I Figured,” he turns inward, examining the nuances of a relationship filled with tension, allure, and a cyclical pull that neither party can resist. As Lutalo explains, it’s about two people who “likely should not be” but find themselves repeatedly drawn back together, struggling to discern whether it’s love or lust driving their connection.

Musically, “I Figured” is lush yet restrained, blending curling acoustic guitar melodies with his soulful, emotive vocals. The song builds on a foundation of intricate rhythms and layered percussion, capturing both the hesitancy and momentum of its lyrical themes.

Lutalo continues to navigate life’s grey areas, crafting music that resonates long after the last note fades.
