The artist 419C releases a new EP called “WHEN A ROSE DIES” on March 25th, 2025. This is a big turning point for 419C, both in his music style and his personal life. The EP is the first part of a bigger project called “THORNES OF A DEAD ROSE,” and it shows that 419C is leaving his old artistic self behind.
After a painful heartbreak in 2024, 419C spent a lot of time thinking and healing. He traveled to different cities like Vienna, Paris, and London, and wrote and recorded eight songs. The EP is like a travel diary of these experiences, exploring deep feelings and connections. 419C explains that writing this EP was part of his healing process. He wanted to capture the feeling of being vulnerable and share it with others who might be going through similar struggles. He believes music helped him express those emotions, and that these stories are for anyone who has faced tough times.
The music itself combines different styles like R&B, pop, and folk. It features 419C’s unique voice along with acoustic guitar, synthesizers, and electronic elements. The focus track, “FEVER,” showcases a fresh take on modern R&B, influenced by artists like Frank Ocean. Beyond the music, 419C is also a photographer and uses visual storytelling in his work. He has created a script for a visual project that goes along with the music, adding another layer to the EP’s emotional depth.
You can find this script on his website. “WHEN A ROSE DIES” will be available on all major streaming platforms. It’s a journey of healing and self-discovery, and it promises to be a meaningful experience for listeners.
