Ahead of his 25th birthday, James Reid makes his return to music with a bold new single '16B.'

Produced by Mat Olavides, Flip Music PH, and Reid himself, '16B' was inspired by a place "where even the most fiery of souls can get lost in the pretty lights," Reid explains in a statement.

The unveiling of the track follows the release of Reid's extravagant visual 'The Life' from his third studio album Palm Dreams last December.

 

16B out now on iTunes AND Spotify! 👽 Produced my @matolavidesmusic @flipmusicph and myself. Y’all should know by now I write my own lyrics and melodies 😊 This song was inspired by a close friend. Yes 16B is a place, a place where even the most fiery of souls can get lost in the pretty lights. Cover art by the one and only @zonlee 🙌🏻 #CarelessMusicManila
