Oftentimes we stumble upon love in new cities and countries which leaves us chasing a moment or a specific emotion. A feeling that easily flees with surmounting schedule demands and a budding career. So I feel like this song fairly allows space for both Shae and I to detail what that experience can be like.\u201d<\/em><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-90065\" src=\"https:\/\/nijimagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/PHABO-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"879\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nijimagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/PHABO-1.jpg 700w, https:\/\/nijimagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/PHABO-1-273x400.jpg 273w, https:\/\/nijimagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/PHABO-1-355x520.jpg 355w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Fresh from his breakthrough <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/xjz8t0Sefvg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">COLORS<\/a> performance (1M+ streams) and a sold-out headline tour, Phabo has swiftly developed a significant following across the globe.
