"'Honey' is about finding light in situations where there isn't any." Songwriting veteran and singer Rook Monroe has consistently made indie pop records that are summery, uplifting, and relatable. His singles "Jolie" and  "Pink and Purple" showed his introspective songwriting and charismatic delivery.

"Honey" continues to build upon the ideas of his past work and cements Monroe as an inventive writer and performer. The standout moment of the track is Monroe's sticky chorus.  "White sun, for your cold heart honey,  Cause it’s so dark honey, where we come from.  Not sweet, but my mouth still waters.  Cause it tastes like honey, when you’re in love."  The grand instrumentation, produced by Trackside, compliments Monroe's energetic and lively vocal ability.

"Honey" helps build momentum for a debut project from Rook Monroe as he continues to show off his writing and knack for building a sunny atmosphere.
