Rina Sawayama has released Hold the Girl (Bonus Edition), the expanded version of her 2022 album. It comes with a pair of new tracks: a version of “Imagining,” featuring Amaarae, and “Flavour of the Month.” Check them out below.
Since releasing Hold the Girl last year, Sawayama has starred in John Wick: Chapter 4, covered Billie Eilish, released a song with Empress Of, and, in a mid-set speech at Glastonbury, called out the 1975’s Matthew Healy for his comments on The Adam Friedland Show.
