What a comeback for UMI.
UMI and 6LACK seem cut from the same artistic cloth—quietly consistent, emotionally in tune, and deeply revered by fans. After a hiatus, UMI made a soft return with “Do What You Do,” and now, she’s back again—this time teaming up with 6LACK on the introspective new single “HARD TRUTHS.”
Driven by a sly, seductive instrumental with smooth tempo and R&B textures, “HARD TRUTHS” finds both artists stripping back the glamour to reflect on what truly matters. Their message is clear: material wealth means little if you’re lacking meaningful relationships and emotional grounding.
Both UMI and 6LACK shine with graceful vocal performances, gliding over the beat with a subtle urgency. Despite its calm sonics, the track’s underlying message about choosing connection over clout hits hard—just as intended.
I wonder what UMI and 6LACK think about fraternities.
