As a Filipino-Australian artist, his sound has been influenced by Frank Ocean, Daniel Caesar, Kehlani, Bryson Tiller and The Weeknd. ‘After The Sun’ is comprised of 5 all-new songs, in collaboration with RMR and Just Friends his band. Within the short span of a year, the young up-and-comer’s growth on a personal level bleeds into his music, delivering us material that not only would hit the charts, but is full of profound meaning, a rarity scarcely found in the climate of today’s industry, some might call this EP an emerald. The EP is a soulful and euphonious sunset story that mainly talks about the beauty of women and the sweetness of another day, an appreciation of life. ‘After The Sun’ in its entirety is a love letter to life, and serves as a reminder to live it with the ones we love.

Rini Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Not a single cloudy day
Ride a boat, sippin' mimosa
All my worries start to fade
But still I feel like something's missing
You left your set here on my pillows
And in my dreams you're so much closer
Oh, oh, oh-oh, oh
She keeps winning me over
We just start to get closer now
I know, I know that she won't let me down
She's the gravity that keeps my feet here
On the ground
Every day I'm tasting brand new
Wine I've never had before
She fill my cup with love and passion
And right now, I want it even more
But still I feel like something's missing
You left your scent here on my pillows
And in my dreams you're so much closer
I wanna hold you
Oh, oh, oh-oh, oh
She keeps winning me over (she keeps winning me)
We just start to get closer now (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I know, I know that she won't let me down (she won't let me down)
She's the gravity that keeps my feet here (oh)
On the ground
The song "Mimosa" by Rini talks about finding peace and happiness in California while being with someone special. The first verse mentions the beautiful weather in California where there's hardly any rain and it's mostly sunny which makes her want to sip mimosa while riding a boat. She feels free and all her worries have faded away. However, despite all of this, she still feels like something is missing because the person she desires is not with her. She can still feel their presence because they left their scent on her pillows and she dreams of holding them close. The second verse describes how she's experiencing new things every day and the person she's with is filling her cup with love and passion which makes her want more of it. Yet, the longing for the person who is not with her is still there.
Rini's "Mimosa" is a song about finding peace, but it's also about finding your perfect match. The person in the song has found someone who keeps winning them over and as they get closer, they realize that this person won't let them down. The person has become the gravity that keeps their feet on the ground. This profundity signifies how important this special person is to her and how they have grounded her in reality.

OKAY HEAR ME OUT!!!!!!!!!!!:
The story begins with rini meeting the person while he is getting some drinks and that is when he decides to talk(MIMOSA).
AFTER SOME DRINKS THE CONVERSATION IS GETTING MORE COMFORTABLE FOR BOTH OF THEM, but he realizes is still kinda hard for the other person to open up and he just wanna make her feel comfortable (TALK TO ME).
He really carries the conversation and is actually interested to know her better, he knows she can be hard to talk to due her bad experinces with other boys, but HE IS DETERMINED TO TALK MORE and deeply WITH HER (FOR DAYS)
They keep in touch after that day and he starts to catch feels, and the other person is more comfortable with him, they talk until midnight and he wants to meet up again and he knows what he wants: more than a friendship yessir (DESTINATION YOU)
Everytime they talk and meet he thinks its cheesy to say it but he actually feel the "Butterflies", he gets em just by looking at the other person and the feeling feels so pure than he wants to take things slow just to feel it better (BUTTERFLIES)
The other person maybe went trought bad experiences and RINI just wants to let her know she is not alone and that he is going to be there in the up and lows "when you're hurting who do you call for comfort, love and all that?"and she can trust him "if u take my hand i can take you places undiscovered, you don't need to hide undercover, i will be your oxygen underwater" at this point he NEEDS to be with her because he feels better just by her side (NEED IT *my favorite btw)
The relationship develops and they realize how happy and how fun is to being with each other, even if its just drinking some wine and laughing about whatever (OVER SOME WINE)
After this realization, RINI starts to think how he never thought something liike "a day out getting a mimosa" would take him to a beautiful relationship where both parts are just happy after bad experiences, it was really unexpected and it really was ...(OUT OF THE BLUE)
After all this time RINI never pushed things foward and had respect for the other person even tho he really feels like maybe its the moment to talk and get the relationship to the next level small things like touching and holding hands are getting more normal (CRAVING) they decide its the time when both of them are comfortable with each other enough to take the relationship to the more physical level with consent obviously and because he knows how hard it is for her to get this intimate he tells her he is going to make her feel good in every single way (BEDTIME STORY).
After some time this gets more normal and comfortable for both of them, they really need each other and really suffer when they are not together, even more IN THOSE NIGHTS, so RINI always gets desperate to get to her place but she is more calm even tho she feels the same way (RED LIGHTS)
THIS STORY ENDS WITH A STARRY NIGHT IN APOLLO BAY
They are just in love man, they watch the stars together, the don´t talk while staring at the stars, they just enjoy each other's company and don't wanna leave, they just want to live the moment, even if is just silence, but its doesn't matter because they are together.

It don’t rain in California
Not a single cloudy day
Ride a boat, sippin’ mimosa
All my worries start to fade
But still I feel like something’s missing
You left your scent here on my pillows
And in my dreams you’re so much closer
I wanna hold you
Oh, oh, oh-oh, oh
She keeps winning me over
We just start to get closer now
I know, I know that she won’t let me down
Just the gravity that keeps my feet here
On the ground
Every day I’m tasting brand new
Wine I’ve never had before
She fill my cup with love and passion
And right now, I want it even more
But still I feel like something’s missing
You left your set here on my pillows
And in my dreams you’re so much closer
I wanna hold you
Oh, oh, oh-oh, oh
She keeps winning me over (She keeps winning me)
We just start to get closer now (Yeah-yeah, yeah)
I know, I know that she won’t let me down (She won’t let me down)
Just the gravity that keeps my feet here (Oh, oh-oh, oh)
