BROCKHAMPTON collaborator Christian Alexander announces debut album I Don’t Like You

"Waste Her Time" is Alexander's first outing since last month's "Makeup", and arrives with a self-directed video.

"I was sitting waiting for my session to start one day, when I saw a video on YouTube about Paul McCartney and his Beatles songs," Alexander explains. "It was really inspiring. I was introduced by Romil to a musician I only know as fedé, and we immediately gelled together and this idea was sparked. I wrote the song out in an hour or so, structured it, with the help from fedé with his knowledge of chords. It felt like anything I wanted he would deliver.. it was amazing. As i was writing it out, Romil layed this dusty, upbeat drum pattern on top of the piano, which was jarring at first, but after a few seconds I fell in love. It was a melding of inspiration from the three of us, all working together to create what I think is a cracker of a song. Later that day Joba came to the studio and orchestrated the backing vocals, which sound beautiful. It also boosted my confidence as a writer, it shifted my goals on what I want out of this songwriting career I’m trying to create."

The Lancashire-based singer/songwriter, who recently opened for BROCKHAMPTON at their final London shows last month and featured on their 2020 song "Twisted", has also announced his debut album I Don't Like You, which will follow his 2020 EP Growing Up.
