Matreya – “Eagles”

Matreya’s first single under the new name, titled “Eagles”, is incredible. I think it’s really impressive the way Matreya mixes pop, soul, and Afro-world vibes in this song. The production quality is clean and rich, which makes for a cozy but also cheerful feeling that gets across the song’s message of resilience and transformation beautifully.

What stands out to me most is Matreya’s voice and it’s the reason why I dig the song from the first listen. You can really feel the weight of his personal journey in the lyrics—grief, healing, and the courage to trust your own path. “Eagles” is one of those songs that feels like it’s speaking directly to you, but at the same time, you can relate to it. That’s what makes it stick with you.

The music video is great too, they filmed it in the cool Scottish Highlands, and it gives the song even more meaning since it’s about getting tough when life gets hard. The visuals are gorgeous and match the emotional tone perfectly. Make sure to give Matreya a follow on social media, because you’ll want to hear what he releases next.
