“Bittersweet” is the suavely successful debut single from London-based Begut, a twenty-year-old singer/songwriter originally from Zaragoza, in the North of Spain. Described as “an empowering self-acceptance story,” the track features a lush, lounge-friendly vibe that escalates alongside the artist’s soaring vocal presence. The “how I wish I could be,” vocal hook plays well in its repetition. The twist at the two-minute mark is melodically striking — a great showing of the artist’s melodic grasp and ability to avoid over-repetition. “Bittersweet” is a gripping debut entry from Begut.
