With her new single, โOne Track Mind,โ Ukrainian-born, New York-based artist maniia confidently crashes the pop scene with a track thatโs as sultry as it is self-assured. Releasing on June 13, this is a glossy, beat-driven anthem for late-night overthinkers and emotionally tangled hearts, fusing early 2000s pop nostalgia with a sleek, modern production style. The result is catchy, cinematic, and impossibly danceableโthink Britney meets BANKS, with a little Y2K flirtation stirred in.
The song starts slow, simmering with a dreamy shimmer before snapping into pulsing beats that are tight, fast, and magnetic. maniiaโs husky, grainy vocals slide in low and sultry, almost whispering her desires before escalating into a chorus that hits like a dance floor confessional. The hook, โYou got a one track mind / Do you think about me?โ repeats like a dare, a tease, and an accusation all at once, embedded perfectly into the trackโs rhythm. Her phrasing clicks into the beat like puzzle pieces falling into place, making the chorus nearly impossible not to sing along to.
The production is slick but not overworked, balancing shimmer with muscle. The bridge is especially satisfying. Itโs a hypnotic build of layered vocalizations that echo like sirens, both warning and seducing over engaging dancey beats, merging the soulful with the sexy. Lyrically, maniia plays with power and vulnerability, questioning desire while owning her own. Lines like โShe wants it allโ and โCan you take the pressure?โ point to a confident femininity that doesnโt wait around to be chosen.
maniiaโs story is one of reinvention. After leaving behind a stable career path and losing her job due to political shifts, she chose to leap fully into music and it shows. โOne Track Mindโ is her bold, infectious statement of intent, made with purpose.
