Kim Petras channels heartbreak with passion on huge pop ballad "All I Do Is Cry".

"All I Do Is Cry" is the fourth single to be shared from Petras in the space of a month, and arrives after "Sweet Spot", "Blow It All", "Got My Number", and "Broken".

Expanding on her pop sound, Petras explains, "Pop was always my biggest obsession. I spend so much time looking for new music online. As a kid, music videos were my escape from the little town I was living in, because nothing happened there. I want to provide that kind of escapism. It’s unapologetically pop."

On how her experiences have shaped her songwriting, Petras adds, "I have unique experiences and have had unique experiences, because I am transgender. Those experiences one-hundred percent go into my music. Being the outcast and being bullied makes you work harder in life. Ihad to fight for everything, because I was not the cool kid and had very few friends. At the same time, I’m just a girlgoing through heartbreak. It feels the same way to me as any other girl would feel about it. Whether or not you connect with people has nothing to do with your gender or sexuality."

"All I Do Is Cry" is out now. Kim Petras will play a headline show at London's Heaven on 27 August. Find out more.
