Inspired by farewell and resilience, the song blends English and te reo Māori seamlessly, honoring grief without erasing it. Robin reveals how this project shattered boundaries between Māori identity and pop/R&B, proving they can coexist beautifully. As an Artist in Residence at Toi Auaha, she’s also stepping into new creative spaces, turning personal pain into universal anthem.
