Turn up the volume! The latest single of FIG, “Opposite Day,” featuring Yoshi T, is here to pump up your day!
Philippine-born and Singapore-raised indie pop/R&B singer-songwriter FIG returns with her new single, “Opposite Day,” featuring Japanese-American hip-hop artist Yoshi T. This vibrant track mixes catchy indie pop melodies with hip-hop rhythms. It creates a fun anthem about the classic “love-hate” dynamic in relationships.
“Opposite Day” serves as the lead single from her upcoming project, FITS, set to drop on November 8. The song captures the frustrations of miscommunication, and the push-and-pull tension often found in friendships or romantic relationships. Its relatable lyrics speak to anyone navigating that tricky love-hate line.
Yoshi T’s collaboration adds a fresh twist, merging indie and hip-hop elements to showcase the diverse sounds of today’s music scene. FIG embraces a DIY spirit, transforming everyday experiences into memorable tunes. She began her musical journey as a teenager, writing and recording songs in her bedroom. She drew inspiration from artists who started their careers in similar ways.

Now, FIG writes full-length songs, creates cover art, and directs her music videos.
Her upcoming 8-track project, FITS, combines her recent Feel Again EP with four brand-new songs. It draws inspiration from large objects and the concept of scale, examining how we sometimes engage in extreme behaviors to reconnect with ourselves.
FIG’s growth hasn’t gone unnoticed. She gained support from Spotify’s mood, Jasmine, and New Music Friday Malaysia playlists in September 2024. Her sound resonates across the region, highlighting her impact on the platform and her growing profile in the indie music scene. She has opened for artists like grentperez, Peach Tree Rascals, dhruv, Sarah Kinsley, and Tiffany Day on their tours. Her top streaming markets include Indonesia, Taiwan, Thailand, Singapore, and the Philippines. This reach expands beyond her NYC base and positions her as a promising artist in the vibrant Asian music landscape.
Through creative content and community engagement, FIG builds a loyal following. Her event series, A Mini Concert, spotlights Asian American and Pacific Islander artists in cozy settings. With “Opposite Day,” FIG and Yoshi T create a track that resonates with anyone navigating the complexities of relationships. This release promises an exciting future for this rising star.
