When we lose someone we love, we can feel a million different emotions simultaneously: sadness, anger, denial, and everything in between. While the technical term for it is called “grief,” it is a far more complex emotion and process than these five letters make it out to be.

Last night the group premiered the track right here on Idobi Radio for the very first time courtesy of taking over our “Fresh At Five”.
