The song “Blastin Pastem” by Annabelle Maginnis and Kenny Zhao invites listeners outside of the current atmosphere of fear and chaos.— Def Sound
Starting from a place of compromise, Annabelle urges listeners to join them in wondering what it may be like to overcome obstacles. Without the glamour of harmful “bootstrap” ideology, “Blastin Pastem” is an emotional offering that acknowledges what is unacceptable while doing the work to go beyond.— Def Sound
