Haviah Mighty - Tesla (Official Video)

Initially inspired by Haviah’s first US mini tour just before the pandemic set in, this bass-heavy and reggae inflected track arrives with a video games-inspired music video as Haviah Mighty outlines the notion of coming to the realisation that her dreams aren’t so far out of her reach.

“While much of this song talks about the things that I feel I’m on my way to achieving, some of which being those nice-to-have material things - for me, these things are symbolic of something more abstract - a lifestyle that I couldn't fathom prior.”

'Tesla' is plucked from Haviah’s forthcoming album ’Stock Exchange’ (November 12th) - the title refers to a reckoning Haviah had internally over the last year, connecting with how artists are forced to validate their value based on random data (followers, subscribers) and losing a part of the authentic human-to-human universal experience of art. Praised by the likes of ROLLING STONE, PITCHFORK, GQ and NPR for her unique and versatile subject matters, Haviah continues to rise in sound and vision with every move she makes.
