When I wrote this track in the film Top Gun: Maverick I was unaware of the many layers that it covers throughout the movie, as well as my personal mental health, and the nature of the world that we live in. I’ve been working on the song for a long time, perfecting it, and trying to make it my own. I’m extremely thankful to Tom [Cruiseand Hans [Zimmer and Joe [Kosinski] for the chance – and it’s been an amazing collaboration with them. I, BloodPop, Ben Rice and all the other people who collaborated with us on this project are eager to share the song with you. The track is a letter of love to all the world’s people during and following a very hard period. I’ve been wanting you to listen to it for years. I’m so thrilled to present you the song on the 3rd of May. “Hold My Hands”.
