The vibrant cityscape of New York City is abuzz with the collaborative release of “Left Right Left” by Singaporean-American artist Saxofshaolin and Grammy-nominated Producer Dretegs. This innovative single not only showcases a fusion of musical styles but also confronts taboo topics within the Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) community, urging a shift toward body positivity and sex positivity.
“left right left” captures the attention from its opening notes, referring to the movement your “屁股” (butt) makes when the song begins. Saxofshaolin, known for his boundary-pushing artistry, explains, “I see so many people make bad decisions and follow negative spirals in order to overcompensate for the lack of discourse/discussion about sex and love, as a whole. I’m hoping this little nudge helps push our culture in the right way.”
In addition to its thought-provoking themes, “Left Right Left” offers a fresh sonic experience by blending Caribbean instruments and styles with elements of Chinese traditional music. This unique fusion entertains listeners and serves as a cultural bridge, celebrating diversity and resilience. The song invites audiences to engage in meaningful dialogue while enjoying its captivating melodies.
Saxofshaolin recently concluded an Artist-in-Residency program at The Museum of Chinese in America in New York City, further solidifying his commitment to exploring cultural heritage and pushing artistic boundaries.
