Biig Piig opens up on grief-inspired new single ‘One Way Ticket’

Biig Piig is back with another taste of her forthcoming debut album ‘11:11’ (due on 7th February via RCA Records), and this time she’s showcasing a more vulnerable side to her atmospheric alt-pop. 

New cut ‘One Way Ticket’ mediates on the loss of a loved one, paying tribute to the bittersweetness of remembering someone who’s no longer here - a marked departure from the heady, club-influenced sonics of previous singles like ‘4AM’ and ‘Decimal’. 

Explaining more about its inspirations, Biig Piig has shared that “this is a track that I made with a long-time collaborator of mine and producer that I love. It brought me into some memories about a person in my life that had passed. I reflected on what it’s like to go through these amazing things that are happening in life and got me thinking about how they would be proud of me. They’d said if I kept dreaming that I’d get there, so really, it’s like a letter to them.” Check it out below.
