"Alright" is a song by French singer-songwriter Jain, released on 25 May 2018 as the lead single from her second studio album Souldier (2018). It was written by Jain and produced by Yodelice.
Jain wrote the song as a "hymn to independence". She has stated, "This song is built in a duality, like love stories... Both gentle and fierce, it highlights determination in the face of desolation. "Alright" speaks of love, in the broad sense, the one that lifts us up and pushes us forward."[1]
Critical reception
Thomas Smith of NME praised the song for its "drum'n'bass with an Afrobeat flair".[2]
