Let’s be honest: sometimes life is a lot. The texts, the feelings, the what-ifs, the spirals at 2 AM. And Akira Sky gets it — really gets it. Her latest single, “Block My Number,” is for anyone who’s ever loved too hard, overthought too much, or hit “send” when they really should’ve slept on it.

This isn’t just another sad-girl anthem. It’s a moody, alt-pop daydream soaked in neon emotions and dripping in honesty. It’s the kind of song that makes you want to dance while crying in your hoodie.

Akira Sky makes music for the emotionally complex — that sweet spot between raw singer-songwriter storytelling and glossy dream-pop production. Think if Remi Wolf’s edge, Janelle Monáe’s soul, and Lorde’s cinematic melancholy all hung out under purple LED lights.

“Block My Number” starts soft, with atmospheric pads and a melody that feels like walking through a rainy city in your feelings. But don’t be fooled — there’s heat in this heartbreak. The chorus hits with a quiet fury, wrapped in velvety vocals and lyrics that hit close to the bone.

Shot across the gritty-glam backdrops of Manhattan and Brooklyn, the music video is as cinematic as the song feels. Directed by Luiza Botelho (2025 Pan African Film Fest Best Short Narrative winner), it’s all tension and beauty — like a fever dream set to a heartbreak playlist. And with Pablo Morais (Brazilian actor/model) starring alongside Akira, there’s no shortage of onscreen chemistry.

Think: dimly lit streetlights, stolen glances, unspoken regret, and that moment you realize blocking someone doesn’t actually block the feelings.

If you’re just discovering her, welcome — you’re gonna want to stay. Akira Sky is a one-woman powerhouse: an L.A.-born, Brooklyn-based singer, songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist who’s been in the game since childhood. She cut her teeth performing at iconic venues like the Hollywood Bowl and Whisky a GoGo before she could legally drive, and now she’s fine-tuning her craft at NYU’s Clive Davis Institute.

Her style? Genre-fluid. Emotion-forward. Totally addictive.

“Block My Number” is just a taste of what’s coming. Akira’s debut EP drops this summer, and if this single is any indication, it’s gonna be the soundtrack to our collective emotional unraveling. Expect more moody bops, brutally beautiful lyrics, and the kind of production that feels both intimate and otherworldly.

If you've ever whispered "I miss you" to your phone screen or deleted a text thread only to scroll through it five minutes later, this song is for you.

Stream “Block My Number” with the volume up, the lights low, and your heart wide open. Trust me — Akira Sky is about to be on all your playlists.
