Rising R&B/dance singer Parker Polhill breaks down his new single 'WYB?', invites country singer Brett Young to collaborate on his upcoming album

Atlanta based R&B up-and-comer Parker Polhill talks about discovering music at a young age, the inspiration from his late uncle, dream collaborations and more.
UPDATED AUG 27, 2018

On Thursday, indie R&B/dance singer Parker Polhill dropped his new single 'WYB?'. Standing for 'Where You Been', the highly anticipated release is a melodic duet between Parker and his long-time friend and first-time collaborator, nineteen-year-old Abby Rhodes. It's an outright love song, one that gathers its momentum through the interplay between the male and female perspectives on a relationship that reeks of unrequited love. 

"I had this relationship with this girl who was dating somebody else and she basically told me that she was waiting for the right time to break up with him because she wanted to be with me. It was that kinda thing," Parker laid out the background to the inspiration behind the track in an exclusive interview with Meaww.

"Long story short, she ended up picking him and I never got any closure from it. So the songwriting process was kinda cool with this one 'cause it's obviously a duet with Abby [Rhodes], who's incredible by the way. But I wrote the female parts as well as the male parts. So the female, lyrically at least, is what I think the girl was thinking because I never really got any closure. So it's my perspective to it all, but with the producer who produced the song and Abby Rhodes, we all sort of collaborated and came up with this cool way of giving the girl's perspective too. That's kind of how it all came together."
