Breakout pop artist blends melodic shine with emotional depth in latest release
Rising Australian pop sensation Orlando Kallen (OK) unveils his newest single, “Don’t Worry Baby,” available on all major streaming platforms. Released in celebration of his birthday, the track marks a compelling return following the breakout success of his debut EP, Leave Me Bleeding. That project’s lead single, “Ex Wants Me Dead,” climbed to No. 10 on the Mediabase Rhythmic Indie Charts and hit No. 1 on the Global DRT Radio Indie Charts, signaling Kallen’s rapid ascent as one of pop’s freshest voices.
“Don’t Worry Baby” showcases OK’s flair for combining cinematic melodies with emotionally resonant lyrics. Beneath its breezy and upbeat sound lies a darker, introspective narrative. “Although this is such a lighthearted melodic pop song, when you dig into the lyrics, it’s kinda twisted, and I love that juxtaposition,” Kallen explains.
The song has also taken on personal significance for the artist, evolving in meaning as his own life has shifted. “It’s my way of saying ‘I’ve always got you, no matter what.’ Since writing it, so much has changed in my personal life. Now it’s like looking in the mirror and telling myself, ‘Don’t worry, it’s all gonna be OK.’ That’s the power of songwriting—it grows with you.”
With influences ranging from Lenny Kravitz and Billie Eilish to The Weeknd, Michael Jackson, and Elvis Presley, Kallen blends classic artsists with contemporary edge. His sultry vocals and emotionally charged lyrics carve out a signature style that’s intimate, bold, and undeniably catchy.
