GIVEON is back—and sounding more soulful than ever. The Long Beach, California native returns with “RATHER BE,” a heartfelt slow-burn that finds him yearning for the one woman who truly has his heart. It’s the kind of emotional honesty and timeless vocal delivery that first put him on the map.
While GIVEON’s been relatively quiet since his debut album Give or Take, “RATHER BE” signals that a new era is officially on the way. With its vintage soul textures and raw vulnerability, the track marks a subtle shift in sound—less glossy, more grounded, and deeply personal.
“RATHER BE” reminds fans exactly why GIVEON is one of this generation’s standout R&B voices. If this is what he’s warming up with, the project he’s building toward could be his most powerful yet.
Stay tuned—GIVEON season might be closer than we think.
