Foolish Ways

The judged becomes the judge.
The outsider becomes the observer.
And the fool becomes us all.

Once again, Grace joins forces with YANCY of Hidden Gem Label, who composed and arranged the song. Their creative partnership is built on an instinctive understanding of one another. For Grace, working with YANCY is one of the blessings of her career: music can be made without having to translate the heart or the mind first.

Together, they create a sound that feels dark, fantastical, and slightly otherworldly, while remaining deeply rooted in the realities of human nature.

In her new single, "Foolish Ways" Grace Aimi explores judgment, isolation, and the fragile hierarchies we create between one another.

The "Fool" is herself. The outsider. The observer. And ultimately, everyone.

The song explores the tension of being cast away and judged for being different, while simultaneously being admired, idolized, or tokenized for that same difference.

"Foolish Ways" is another glimpse into the world they create together.
