KAYLENN Captures Honesty of Young Love in New Single “Selfish”

KAYLENN is ready to make the world a little more “Selfish” — not in the careless sense, but in the way young love makes you want to hold onto every glance, every feeling, every fragile moment.

With her brand-new single “Selfish”, the 21-year-old singer-songwriter channels the unspoken vulnerability of wanting someone so deeply yet being afraid to say it out loud. Blending silky vocals with tender R&B production, the track captures emotions that are at once intimate, universal, and impossible to ignore.

Co-written with two Hawaii-based creators, “Selfish” explores the bittersweet honesty of longing for someone while keeping your own feelings hidden. It’s the quiet ache of wanting to be noticed, putting on a brave face, yet wishing to connect.

“For this single, I pushed myself further than ever before to let raw emotions come through. It’s unfiltered, honest — truly a reflection of who I am right now,” shares KAYLENN.

The music video for “Selfish” also mirrors the song’s duality, moving between a Hawaiian beach at sunset — representing KAYLENN’s outward, guarded self — and intimate bedroom scenes that reveal her vulnerable inner world. Shot on 16mm film for a dreamy, vintage aesthetic, the visuals highlight the delicate balance between strength and fragility, authenticity and artistry.

With “Selfish,” KAYLENN proves that being vulnerable doesn’t mean being weak — it means daring to want, to feel, and to ask for love without apology. By making the world a little more “Selfish”, she reminds listeners that it’s okay to crave closeness, to put our hearts first, and to let emotions be heard.
