Today, emerging singer-songwriter and artist Tempest returns with her second single of the year, “So Gone,” featuring friend, frequent collaborator, and co-writer Naomi Wild. The unforgiving track offers listeners a glimpse at Tempest’s artistic versatility and finds her unabashedly meditating on the pain and confusion of being ghosted in a situationship. “So Gone” touches on complex emotion and is bookended by creative production as it kicks off with a lush R&B sound. The single effortlessly weaves into an alt-tinged mood as it combines airy guitar chords and indie-funk. Laying the ground for Tempest and Wild’s captivating switch-up, it transports listeners into a deeper realm via cool, authentic, unrefined, and dynamic storytelling.

Coinciding with the single’s release is the cinematic visual directed by Lakewood Mall. The video features rising New Zealand artist TAPZ GALLANTINO as Tempest’s love interest. It brings to life the song’s poignant feel as it depicts an emotional quest where despite his best ghosting efforts, he’s unable to escape her presence.

Speaking on the track, Tempest shares: “‘So Gone’ is showing the different perspectives that we might have when it comes to being ghosted. The first part of the song explains how much a waste of time that person was. While the second half of the song shows vulnerability towards the situation.”

Tempest continues to collaborate with fellow rising artists. Her latest collaboration with Zyah Belle for “Not The One” has resulted in press praise from VICE, UPROXX, Rated RnB, and more. “So Gone” is a continuation of Tempest’s ethos of love, empowerment, and self-awareness, that finds the rising artist leaning into her acoustic sound, enmeshed with a refreshed alt-R&B vibe.
