The post PinkPantheress Drops “Reason” Music Video On Her Birthday appeared first on Hot Pop Today.
]]>It’s been almost three years since PinkPantheress shared this song with the world, but its music video never saw the light of day. That finally changed this past Friday, when the young R&B star decided to drop the dreamy “Reason” visual, filmed in the middle of the woods.
Sharing this video doesn’t seem to be a promo strategy, but simply a treat for her loyal fans. “Reason” was initially released all the way back in October 2021, as one of 10 songs from PinkPantheress’ debut mixtape To Hell with It, and it wasn’t even one of its singles.
She produced this drum and bass song alongside Zach Nahome, and they ended up making the beat together.
“I told him what kind of drums I wanted, what kind of sound and space I wanted, and he came up with that. With garage music, I just enjoy the breakbeats of it, the drums. It’s also quintessentially British. We birthed it. I think it’s always nice to go back to your roots,” the singer told Genius.

]]>Like many Gen-Z artists these days, Victoria Beverly Walker aka PinkPantheress used the social media platform TikTok to get her music out there. Several of her songs eventually went viral, and “Boy’s a Liar Pt. 2” became a global phenomenon after the American rapper Ice Spice hopped on the remix.
This song is featured as the last track on Heaven Knows, but you won’t have to wait until the last moment for this album to really pop. PinkPantheress will grab your attention with the very first riffs of the opening track “Another Life” ft. Rema and she’ll never let it go.
“Nice to Meet You” ft. Central Cee was released as the album’s fourth single, but Heaven Knows features several songs that prove PinkPantheress can deliver an amazing song all on her own. From the playful “Mosquito” to the reflective “Capable of Love”, this album offers several tracks that perfectly capture the singer’s dreamy musical style.
Heaven Knows cements PinkPantheress’ status as the queen of Y2K nostalgia, drawing clear inspiration from the R&B and pop music from this era. This has always been both her biggest weakness and strength—her music feels like a mixture of dated and contemporary sound, making it difficult to seem groundbreaking.
This doesn’t take away from the fact that but Heaven Knows is a pretty strong debut album from one of R&B’s biggest rising stars. She stays true to her signature sound while taking her music in new directions and diving into the depths of her emotions in the most joyous way possible.
