Julia Duclos Makes a Bold Statement with New Single “Look and See” – A Stirring Journey of Strength and Self-Awakening

Malaysian-French singer-songwriter Julia Duclos is back with her most powerful release to date—Look and See, a fearless anthem about reclaiming your voice, embracing inner strength, and learning to prioritise yourself without guilt. Deeply personal yet universally relatable, the track explores the emotional tug-of-war between caring for others and finally choosing to care for yourself.

Speaking about the inspiration behind the song, Julia reveals, “Look and See came from a place of deep self-reflection. I was caught in a cycle of inner conflict and self-doubt, but I wanted to channel that into something honest—like a conversation with myself. This song is a reminder that it’s okay to put yourself first sometimes. It’s okay to stand up for your truth.”

The creation of Look and See unfolded organically in the studio, marking Julia’s first collaboration with a Malaysian producer, JOEK. Their creative synergy was instant, allowing the song to evolve naturally without being forced into a box. “Nothing felt manufactured,” Julia explains. “We didn’t chase trends—we just let the song grow into what it needed to be.”

One of the most personal touches came during production, when Julia recorded guitar layers with her own brother. The moment added emotional weight and texture to the track, especially in a challenging section that needed a raw, energetic lift. It’s these little moments that make Look and See feel intimate, powerful, and real.

Alongside the single, Julia also unveils a visually captivating music video that plunges fans into her creative universe. Blending elements of dark animation, fantasy, and horror, the video mirrors the emotional complexity of the song. “The visuals are a huge part of how I tell my story,” she shares. “This video is my way of inviting people into my world—something surreal, emotional, and unapologetically me.”

Filming the video was both exciting and terrifying for Julia—but ultimately, a rewarding experience. “It’s a new chapter for me,” she says. “I challenged myself creatively in ways I never have before. I’m so proud of what we made, and I can’t wait to grow even further from here.”

With Look and See, Julia isn’t just releasing a song—she’s laying the foundation for the next era of her artistry. Her focus moving forward is to release more original music and to deepen collaborations with other artists. “The goal is to create music that matters—music that speaks to people, with collaborators who bring fresh perspectives. I’m excited for the road ahead.”
