Hibachi and Image have teamed up to deliver 'Hurt Me,' a hypnotic blend of sleek house beats, R&B undertones, and poetic lyricism. The track captures the emotional tension between pleasure and pain, with Image’s deep, Channel Tres-esque vocals effortlessly flowing over the pulsating rhythm. Hibachi’s delicate hook adds a touch of vulnerability, perfectly complementing the bittersweet theme of unrequited love.
The production, reminiscent of Kaytranada, creates a lush sonic landscape that explores the heartache of desire while maintaining a light, seductive groove. 'Hurt Me' is the ideal soundtrack for those late-night moments when you're tempted to send a text you might later regret.
Hibachi, a German-Congolese artist based in London, brings a unique perspective to his music, shaped by his international upbringing in Tanzania and Europe. A self-taught producer, he draws from diverse influences, including Timbaland, Pharrell, and Drake, to create a dynamic sound that fuses genres seamlessly.
'Hurt Me' is only Hibachi's fourth single to date, since he launched his artist project in 2023. 'Hurt Me' is the third time Hibachi has worked with Image, following previous singles 'Limon' and '10s Can Dance'.
Each of Hibachi's releases feel tight and cohesive. Despite being early on in his career, here is a producer who knows his sound.
