Kelsie Kimberlin Unveils “Sucker”: A Symphony of Heartache and Healing
Rising pop star Kelsie Kimberlin takes her single, “Sucker,” to unprecedented heights. With emotion brimming in every corner and instrument in the room, Kelsie’s pop prowess can be felt through each note. The music video was filmed in Kyiv, Ukraine, a city rife with conflict but overflowing with resilience. It led her to torch the country’s scars through the lens of her camera. The video marks her fourth self-directed piece this year. The rich tapestry of Kyiv serves as a metaphorical stage engulfed in the grappling comforts of emotional entrapment. The raw, aching feeling behind her lyrics resound moments of enduring longing, which portray her binary existence of being, ‘a young woman in one-sided love.’
Kelsie captures raw, lived-in sentiments with breathtaking precision, taking them to what could only be described as euphoric heights in “Sucker.” The music does not shy away from Kelsey’s piercing words. “This song,” Kelsie adds, “captures the essence of a love that completely exhausts you. A love that deceives you ever so gently into believing you need it to live.” It's far from a solitary tale of heartbreak. Her reflection represents countless girls she has encountered throughout her life; those who care too deeply, value too little, and tend to stay longer than necessary. Even when the world tends to martyr them, Kelsie’s empowering new message is simply, walk away. Time is far too precious to engulf gracefully in radiant love, and far too short to be revolving around someone who only reciprocates when it’s convenient.
The video was equally as mesmerizing visually. Kelsie moves from instrument to instrument, the keys, strings, and even the percussion as if searching for the perfect note to break free. Each sound offers as if releasing, then instantly, plunging back to sadness. Kelsie's music is not only about escaping instead it's more of a reflection. Although music can bring peace, it can't save you; you have to do that yourself.
With more than a hundred songs to her name, Kelsie Kimberlin has left a mark on the global pop scene and continues to evolve with fearless authenticity. “Sucker” is another song off the list, but rather than pop, it's a slogan to earn respect of yourself. Fresh off receiving the UN humanitarian award and St George's Royal Medal of Honour, Kelsie's voice now carries beyond the stage as she shifts her focus towards global advocacy. Alongside a movie dedicated to Ukraine will contain a soundtrack set to elevate her venture that aims to prove real ‘pop’ can only stem from passion, aim, and bravery.
