Ripple

Millie Gibson’s new single, "Ripple", flows like a quiet current – steady and soothing but full of depth beneath the surface. After a two-year break, the New York-based alternative R&B artist reintroduces herself with a track that blends soulful melodies and introspective lyrics, creating a sound that feels both effortless and carefully crafted. From the first note, "Ripple" sets a mellow, almost hypnotic tone, pulling listeners into its reflective groove.

At its core, "Ripple" is a song about navigating life’s emotional ups and downs. Millie’s lyrics capture a journey of personal growth, one marked by struggle but also by the hope that lingers beneath. “I’ve been on a wave of silence”, she sings, setting the stage for a song that’s more about feeling than flashy production. The understated instrumentation creates a spacious atmosphere, allowing Millie’s silky vocals to shine without distraction. Her use of scat singing and vocal improvisation adds a unique, organic touch that keeps the track interesting.

"Ripple" is a song that quietly invites you in, rewarding you with its subtle complexity. The jazz-infused production and introspective lyrics create a vibe that’s perfect for late-night listening or moments of calm reflection. Millie Gibson’s return feels intentional and thoughtful, proving that she’s an artist who knows how to make a powerful impact and that sometimes the quietest songs make the loudest statements.
