(Photo Credit: TheRedFox Photography)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>I learned what a \u201csingle\u201d is compared to an \u201cEP\u201d during this interview with Dante. Apparently, a \u201csingle\u201d can be more than one song as long as it\u2019s under ten minutes. With that said, Dante\u2019s single, <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/dante-gravina-reed\/sets\/through-it\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Through It<\/em><\/a>, is comprised of two songs, <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/dante-gravina-reed\/dante-ft-damien-daniels-i-miss-u\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>I Miss U<\/em><\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/dante-gravina-reed\/reminiscing-master-dante-ishii\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Reminiscing<\/em><\/a>. Most people will think <em>I Miss U<\/em> is about a girl, but it\u2019s actually about his mom, who passed away in November. The song starts with the sounds of a heavy rainstorm because people typically think of sadness when they hear the rain. It\u2019s pretty fitting. <em>Reminiscing,<\/em> featuring Ishii\ud83e\udd8b, was inspired by a breakup from last year. It\u2019s about being there for someone you truly care about and then having them throw it all away as if it was nothing. What the heck, Dante? This \u201csingle\u201d is so depressing, which means you spent two to three weeks working on it in that mindset. I hope your upcoming songs are less sad.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/weazel-news.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/dante1_redfox-min-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9301\" srcset=\"https:\/\/weazel-news.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/dante1_redfox-min-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/weazel-news.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/dante1_redfox-min-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/weazel-news.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/dante1_redfox-min-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/weazel-news.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/dante1_redfox-min-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/weazel-news.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/dante1_redfox-min-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/weazel-news.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/dante1_redfox-min-533x300.jpg 533w, https:\/\/weazel-news.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/dante1_redfox-min-310x174.jpg 310w, https:\/\/weazel-news.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/dante1_redfox-min-150x84.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Dante Gravina-Reed.

He\u2019s also keeping a secret about who one of the artists he\u2019s currently collaborating with is. I can\u2019t wait to find out who it is once the song gets released because it\u2019s going to be awesome, especially when it\u2019s someone he says he is grateful to finally work with. Not listed, Dante hopes he can work with the special guests at KOKORO because \u201cthey are so talented.
