With “Hidden Hurt” Gina Naomi Baez explores how we all can put up a front and try to exude positivity when we are hurting inside. With lyrics including, “deepest secrets lie / even behind the prettiest smile / you don’t know the full story / just the cover artwork / everyone of us has hidden hurt,” Baez reminds the listener to show kindness and empathy for each other as each and every one of us can be going through something painful, even if we are exuding happiness on the outside. “Hidden Hurt” showcases Baez’s pristine vocals full of passion and hope which glide effortlessly over colorful synths and soaring acoustic guitar riffs. “Hidden Hurt” ebbs and flows sonically mirroring the deep emotions found in each and every one of us.

As an acclaimed actress landing roles in prominent TV shows (Orange Is the New Black, CSI) and movies (She’s Gotta Have It) as well as numerous Off-Broadway plays, the singer also runs a successful Youtube channel where she uses her comedic talents to inspire and entertain. As a survivor of thyroid cancer, the artist is an inspiration to us all to continue to pursue our goals despite hardships. “Hidden Hurt” is off of her upcoming EP set for release this summer.
