Zakhar Dissects The Pitfalls Of London Life On “Better Things”
Written by SOURCE on August 19, 2022
North London singer, songwriter and rapper Zakhar is back with his latest single, “Better Things”, which arrives with a new set of visuals directed by Chris Chance.
Produced by Phrxlla, with additional production from Deps Music, it’s another prime example of the 18-year-old’s finely tuned balancing act that pairs delicate songwriting with a dark and crisp instrumental that’s pure LDN. For the video, Chris Chance continues that interplay of the rough and the smooth, artfully arranging shots of Zakhar and a small group of supporting players, and then setting them against the dark grey skies of London’s smoky cityscapes and beaten-up concrete settings.
“‘Better Things’ is a mixture of my romance, life experiences and feelings living in inner-city London,” says Zakhar, and this is perfectly encapsulated in the track’s visuals. Peep the music video above and be sure to add “Better Things” to your playlists.
