Obeeyay and Maya Malkin Channel Romantic Chaos into Irresistible Alt-Pop Duet “we good or what?”
They say even a compass loses its mind in a magnetic storm—“we good or what?” feels exactly like that moment, a dizzying spark of emotional polarity wrapped in a neon hug. Obeeyay and Maya Malkin, two celestial bodies on seemingly clashing orbits, collide in this genre-surfing track that feels like arguing at sunset with someone you might still love—heated, beautiful, unresolved.
Obeeyay, a Utah-born crooner with a gleam of pop gold in his cadence, laces each verse with buoyant charm and melodic bravado. Maya, Toronto’s sharp-tongued siren, counters with velvety grit and emotional precision. Together, they compose a duet that simmers like a sidewalk after rain—still steaming, still tense, but undeniably alive.
“we good or what?” isn’t just a question—it’s a rhetorical slow-burn delivered over a gradually rising pulse of alt-pop effervescence and alt-R&B silk. From driveway spats to addictive harmonies, this song makes romantic chaos sound like a good time. There's friction, there's flair, but most importantly, there’s feeling—raw and resonant, like a text you type and never send.
The production is cleverly understated at first, teasing with skeletal percussion and minimal synths before unfurling into a full-bodied groove perfect for dancing your indecision away. It’s festival-season fodder with soul—a sonic cocktail that’s one part nostalgia, two parts now.
Obeeyay and Maya Malkin have done something rare: they’ve made emotional limbo sound like a party worth attending. So... we good, or what? After hearing this—yeah, we’re more than good.
