2024 was a year that hit harder than I expected. I entered 2025 with the hope that the worst was behind me, but unfortunately, the universe had other plans.
In the depths of my struggles, music has been one of the few things that kept me going, maybe the most important thing, if not for the occasional escape of alcohol. I’m sharing this personal bit because I want you to understand how deep my sadness ran. Music, like a lifeline, became my crutch, holding me up when I didn’t think I could stand any longer.
So, you can imagine how devastated I was when I realized that Asa Quana still hadn’t re-released all his songs from his first album Azule. This wasn’t just any album; it was a soundtrack to some of my darkest, hardest moments. It saw me through sleepless nights, bad decisions, and deeper regrets. And to learn it’s gone, completely wiped from streaming platforms, is something I still can’t fully grasp.
Asa Quana's Azule.
Honestly, I feel like artists should give their fans a heads-up before doing something as drastic as pulling their music from streaming platforms. After getting us hooked, letting us fall in love with their sound, then suddenly, Bam! It’s all gone without warning.
It feels like a breakup you didn’t see coming.
For me, Azule wasn’t just music; it was an anchor. Asa Quana’s mix of soulful melodies and raw lyrics connected with me in ways few artists can. His songs were more than just tracks, they were emotional lifelines.
Now I’m left wondering, what am I supposed to listen to lift my mood, now that I can’t find “How I Met Your Mother” anymore? Asa Quana, if you’re reading this, I’m waiting for your response. To know that Azule is just... gone? I still can’t wrap my head around it.
2024 was a year full of sad and triggering events. I stepped into 2025 thinking the worst was behind me, but unfortunately, the bad karma only got worse. Asa Quana deleted his album, and Twitter account in 2024, and I honestly felt like losing my mind.
The Mystery of Lovebenji
Just when I thought things couldn’t get worse, Lovebenji went ahead and deleted ALL HIS SONGS.
Let me say that again: My favorite artist, Lovebenji, deleted EVERY SINGLE ONE of his songs!
Here’s the kicker, I don’t know a single soul who listens to Lovebenji besides me. It makes me wonder... am I crazy? Did Lovebenji even exist? Was I part of some elaborate dream where I imagined an entire discography?
I’ve searched everywhere, Google, Spotify, X, YouTube, Apple Music, Safari, and there’s nothing. No news, no posts, no sign of this young musician!
It’s like he never existed.
How can someone be real when you’re the only one who remembers them?
If Lovebenji’s music had been just another passing trend, I might be able to chalk it up to the whims of the music industry. But this? It feels different. It feels like something was erased, purposefully, maybe? Why would an artist vanish like this? Could it be the pressures of the industry, or maybe a personal decision to step away? Or maybe I’m just overthinking it, and Lovebenji is out there, doing his thing somewhere. Either way, I need answers.
So, if you happen to come across Lovebenji (the musician, not the movie!), please tell him I said, "What’s good, Benji? I miss you."
