Tia Gordon makes her return with “should i give it up,” the latest single lifted from her upcoming six-track EP i asked the stars for this. x, set to arrive on May 6th.
Serving as the second preview of the project, the track offers a deeper look into the emotional and thematic core of the release.
Produced by three-time Grammy Award-winning outfit Brasstracks—known for collaborations with Chance the Rapper and Harry Styles—the song blends warm, soulful textures with a stripped-back, introspective feel. It creates space for Tia’s voice to sit front and centre, carrying the weight of the track’s internal dialogue.
At its heart, “should i give it up” captures a moment of self-questioning, as Tia reflects on her path in music while confronting deeper doubts around identity and confidence. The song leans into that uncertainty, unpacking the tension between ambition and vulnerability, and exploring the wider pressures—both personal and societal—that can shape how we see ourselves. It’s a thoughtful, emotionally honest piece that speaks to the complexity of navigating purpose, expectation, and self-belief.
