It’s just past midnight, and you know what that means. It’s prime time for getting in our feels, overthinking everything, and looking for that perfect song that just gets it.

Ever been in a relationship that feels both incredibly close and painfully distant at the same time? One moment it’s warm and cozy, the next you’re left feeling completely out in the cold. If you just nodded your head, then you need to stop what you’re doing and listen to XYVRL.

Meet your new obsession. Rising OPM artist XYVRL has delivered the ultimate “hugot” anthem for this exact feeling with her latest single, “HOTNCOLD.”

The Vibe: A Chill Track for a Heavy Heart

Don’t let the smooth, laid-back vibe fool you. While “HOTNCOLD” is a buttery blend of pop, soul, and RnB that’s perfect for a late-night drive, the lyrics hit you right where it hurts. The track is a raw and honest take on being in an unfair, one-sided relationship where you’re giving everything and getting nothing back.

XYVRL doesn’t hold back, and these lines might feel a little too real for some of us:

“You don’t deserve me. Binigay ko sa’yo ang lahat when you were thirsty. I was there for you pero baby wala ka for me. So tell me sino ba ang totoo sa atin?”

Oof. She perfectly captures that feeling of being physically close but emotionally miles apart with the song’s killer hook, painting a picture of a love that’s both hot to the touch and cold to the soul. It’s the kind of songwriting that makes you want to close your eyes and just soak in the meaning.

Who’s the Voice Behind the Vibe?

If XYVRL isn’t on your radar yet, it’s time to fix that. “HOTNCOLD” is her second banger of the year, following the success of her equally smooth track, “LILAGIRL.” She’s steadily carving out a space for herself in the OPM scene as an artist who delivers both impeccable vibes and lyrical depth.

Proving she’s got the live chops to back it up, XYVRL gave fans a surprise performance of “HOTNCOLD” at a Universal Records event back in June, just a day before its official release. Those lucky enough to be there got the first taste, and now it’s our turn to have it on repeat.
