Queer, alternative artist XXJULÍA returns with Berlin Boy, a genre-blending anthem that fuses neo-soul, indie, and pop into a groove-driven journey of love, heartbreak, and unexpected triumph. Self-produced and deeply personal, the track tells a cinematic story—a non-refundable train ticket, a gut-wrenching revelation, and a wild, full-circle twist that turns heartbreak into liberation.
Berlin Boy immerses listeners in the raw, alternative energy of Berlin, brought to life through a funky bassline, pulsating drum beats, graffiti-spray sound effects, and even the hum of the U-Bahn.
A freaky guitar riff adds a sense of chaos, mirroring the emotional rollercoaster at the heart of the track. The storytelling is unfiltered and bold—one moment, you’re lost in a dream, the next, you’re hit with the brutal truth that there’s “someone else.” But just when despair takes hold, fate delivers a plot twist: an old Tinder match slides into the DMs, leading to a wild lesbian date weekend in Berlin—partially funded by Berlin Boy himself.
From soulful grooves to an explosive finale, XXJULÍA’s signature in-your-face vocals and fearless production style bring the song’s themes of ego, heartbreak, and triumph to life. Berlin Boy isn’t just a song—it’s an experience, a rebellious ode to reclaiming power in the face of rejection. It’s bold, it’s raw, and it’s exactly what we’ve come to expect from XXJULÍA.
