Influenced by the debilitating restrictions of the COVID-19 pandemic, which included isolation from her creative community, the song finds Santi reconnecting with her \u201cpersonal strength and purpose\u201d as a way to reignite her powers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI had started working on this beat and I didn\u2019t have anything in mind for a topic, I just knew I wanted to do a sort of rap punk song, as dangerous as that sounds,\u201d Santi says in a press release. \u201cMy buddy Ray Brady and I started working on something, trying to add in all the elements that made sense: kicks, subs, new wave synths. Boys Noize ended up bringing something super cool that really built the song and made me get even more excited about it. It was coming along quickly, until it wasn\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Smacked with a jolt of uncertainty, Santigold determined the \u201cpunk rock energy and the angst\u201d she wanted to communicate wasn\u2019t coming through.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI tried adding guitar and a live drum kit, and that was a big red buzzer \u2018X,&#8217;\u201d she adds. \u201cI ended up tagging in Psymun who brought in Ryan Olson, and they brought the final missing element. The energy I was looking for couldn\u2019t be the old version of punk rock, it had to be the future sound of punk rock. They brought the angst, the push and pull that was missing, but it was very fresh sounding and totally unexpected.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt all came together in a way I could never have imagined when we started, but it was exactly what I set out to make. I want to make music that sounds like the past and the future all in one; music that makes you feel safe enough to jump in, but then takes us on a journey to where we needed to go but have never even heard of. I want my music to be the bridge.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Santigold - High Priestess (Official Video)\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TV4OcjlAawY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Throughout the songwriting process, Santigold was reminded just how much she missed collaborating with her fellow artists, or as she calls it, \u201ca meeting of minds and hearts.\u201d The COVID-19 pandemic, which began its rampage in March 2020, brought that to a screeching halt.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI made this song over the past two years during the pandemic and was desperate for this type of connection,\u201d she admits. \u201cI started working on it in my studio with Ray a few weeks before the first lockdown in 2020 but after that, I was completely by myself in a room. Part of the time, I was in a room in a cabin in the middle of the woods in Canada, completely isolated. <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/technology\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"Technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Technology<\/a> was amazing though, because I felt like I was hanging out with these guys the whole time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy engineer recorded me on my computer in my studio from afar. Boys Noize and I hung out everyday on Zoom and talked and laughed more than we\u2019d had a chance to in years. I worked with Psymun for the first time in this way, over Zoom with us in different countries, and im<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media<\/a>tely figured out what I love about him as a producer.

I called this song \u2018High Priestess\u2019 because this song was about my greatness. I needed to be a witness to myself at that point, calling out my own power, my own fortitude, my own wisdom, because I felt like I had become disconnected from it, having been s<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/trip-and-travel\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Trip &amp; Travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">trip<\/a>ped out of the rhythm of life that I had cultivated for myself, and thrust into this smaller, one dimensional version of myself, grounded and isolated for too long.
