On August 3rd of this year, Mikayla Geier’s popularity exploded after Instagram featured her talents on their IG feed where she talked about her previous struggles with anorexia and how it has affected her love for dance. Following on the back of this, the young artist has now teamed up with loyalties to release the collaborative new single “Second Place.”

Not willing to be in ‘second place’, Mikayla sings about her previous struggles with self love and how they affected the way that she approached relationships. She used to be okay with being other people’s second best option, but not anymore. With “Second Place” serving as her ‘start over’ anthem, she’s finally ready to declare that she knows her worth and second place…well, just isn’t good enough.

Her partnership with loyalties couldn’t be more spot on. The incredibly talented duo create a lush instrumental backdrop to her undeniably relatable lyrics, building the song’s energy from beginning to end. Their pop sensibilities pair perfectly on this track – based out of both Brooklyn and Dallas, loyalties have racked up millions of streams cross-platform, further solidifying their unique space in both the EDM and pop music worlds.
