<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nWith the release of her first single from this album, Iemand Anders, on 12 February 2021, she already made people fall in love with her, making them gasp for air with her blue eyes, incredible voice, optimism and positivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cROEKELOOS VERLIEF is also the name of one of the songs on the album and I decided that it was the perfect title for my debut release. The purpose of the album was to establish my own identity, to create original material, record songs and pave my way in the Afrikaans music industry.\u201d says Rita Li.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Although the recording process only took three months, the artist has been planning and collecting content for this special project for more than two years and believes that events from her own and other people\u2019s lives were the main inspiration behind each of the song\u2019s lyrics. \u201cI would like listeners to find their own story in my music and experience the emotions that comes with it,\u201d she says. \u201cIt is important to me that fans must be able to sing along and resonate with my songs and that it will give them courage on the days they need it the most.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to the singer, it is difficult to choose a favourite song on the album, because they are all very dear to her. \u201cMy current single, \u2018Iemand Anders\u2019, which is doing exceptionally well on radio, stood out for me since day one and I believe that this song and \u2018Vir ewig anders\u2019 are going to be popular with listeners, because both are about making choices with strong messages that everyone will be able to relate to.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The release of her album is accompanied by the release of a new single and music video, Kleur My In. According to Rita Li, this extraordinary song reflects her relationship with her husband. The song was written by Elvis Blue. \u201cThe song is literally about a person who entered my life and changed all the black and white lines into rainbow colours. Because he is enough and all I need I will walk with him through the deserts and droughts faced in life. I also firmly believe that this is what God wants to tell each of us \u2013 that we are enough \u2013 because He created us. We just need to believe that and live to that,\u201c says Rita Li about th\u00ecs song, which is very dear to her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The music video of Kleur my in was shot on an open gravel road somewhere on the border of Gauteng and the Free State. The video was produced by Christian Wolf from BrickWolf Creations and the concept was \u201csimplicity\u201d. \u201cThe gravel road represents Rita Li\u2019s heart growing up in the heart of the Eastern Free State, where becoming silent in nature was part of her experiences as a child. The lyrics \u201cgood enough\u201d is a strong message in the song and the concept of the video truly compliments it \u2013 that when we are stripped of everything, with nothing but simplicity, to realise that we are good enough, because we were created by Someone Who is good enough for this broken world,\u201d she adds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
