Kiesza’s latest release, “When Boys Cry,” arrives as another meaningful chapter in a comeback shaped by recovery, change, and personal growth. Premiered on January 10th, the song follows “Sweet Love,” which marked her return after a two-year hiatus following a car crash that left her with a traumatic brain injury. “You’re the Best” followed in November, continuing a run of new music that leads toward her upcoming third studio album. After six years since “Sound of a Woman,” this release carries the feeling of an artist rebuilding her creative world while looking ahead.
The timing gives “When Boys Cry” a particularly human quality. Kiesza spent much of 2019 recovering from an experience that changed the course of her life, while receiving support, love, and encouragement from people around her. That background makes the song feel connected to a period of growth, resilience, and renewed ambition. With three songs expected on the yet-untitled album, “When Boys Cry” becomes another piece of a larger return. It suggests an artist embracing the obstacles behind her, the lessons they brought, and the goals still waiting ahead. The result feels reflective, hopeful, and connected to a fresh creative chapter that feels both personal and forward-looking today too.
