Glenn Samuels is back with his inspiring single ‘Buktinya Baik-Baik Saja’ ahead of his upcoming album.

Written by Glenn Samuels, the track presents R&B and pop influences combined with his signature soul-stirring sound and personal storytelling, being the perfect example of his evolving artistry, even with this track being his 8th release in his solo career.

The single follows the narrative of someone stuck in the seemingly never-ending spiral of being in a toxic relationship, feeling lost and trapped, until they decide to break free from the shackles and piece themselves back together again to prove that their life is just fine—and even much better.

Glenn explains the story behind the song as he expresses, "This song isn’t just a typical 'move on' song. It’s also a reminder that when we're in a toxic relationship, we need to quickly make the decision to either preserve or leave the relationship. If your heart tells you to leave, trust me, what you’re doing is to save yourself from something bad."

The story behind the track is also accurately translated in the music video, which physically represents the struggles that one faces in a toxic relationship and the contrast between them while they are trapped in the hopelessness and once they've broken out of the relationship.

‘Buktinya Baik-Baik Saja’ is one of 10 tracks that will be featured on Glenn's upcoming full studio album, which will be released in October.

The heavy theme of the song is one that Glenn hopes will reach the hearts of listeners, especially those who have just moved on and escaped a toxic relationship.

Glenn Samuels conveys the hope that this track will make a positive impact on people's lives as he says, "I hope this song serves as a reminder for everyone that when we choose to love ourselves and focus on more positive things in life, good things will come and happen. Don’t hesitate to leave what’s bad for us, because without realizing it, the toxic relationships we keep tolerating are the ones that block our dreams and aspirations. Get out, run, save yourself, and find the happiness you deserve."

‘Buktinya Baik-Baik Saja’ is a comforting track that fans seek refuge in when they need the support or motivation to get out of a bad situation. The track highlights the artistic maturity and lyrical prowess that Glenn presents through the top-tier production and conception of the track.
