Kotrell has released his latest single “Not Ready,” a deeply personal exploration of grief and acceptance, as well as a powerful testament to the universal experience of loss.
The track, which debuted early in December, showcases the singer’s ability to transform personal pain into a healing musical experience, according to a statement.
The song’s minimalist acoustic arrangement serves as a delicate backdrop for Kotrell’s emotionally charged vocals. “You didn’t even say goodbye and it haunts me,” he sings in one of the track’s most poignant moments, capturing the raw essence of unexpected loss. The opening line, “I have no control of when the sun rises or when it sets,” establishes a theme of powerlessness that resonates throughout the ballad.
“Not Ready” marks another significant milestone in Kotrell’s rising career, following a series of successful releases that have been steadily building his audience. What sets this particular track apart is its intimate approach to grief, offering listeners a sacred space to process their own experiences with loss.
Music enthusiasts are already praising the single for its authenticity and emotional depth, noting how the stripped-down production allows Kotrell’s heartfelt delivery to take centre stage.
