Listen to “Where is my Home” by Shao Hao

I believe many of us grapple with a profound sense of feeling lost at various points in our lives. Often, we find ourselves questioning our identities and searching for our place in an ever-changing world. This journey toward self-discovery can be both sensitive and lengthy. London-based singer-songwriter Shao Hao brilliantly encapsulates this struggle in his latest track, “Where is My Home.” In this compelling piece, he shares his personal battle to find belonging and navigate the complexities of fitting in, aligning with anyone who has ever felt adrift in their own journey.

This dynamic alt-pop track powerfully reflects Shao’s journey of relocating to the UK at 17 to pursue his passion for music, all while grappling with the challenge of maintaining her sense of self. It encapsulates an evocative sense of displacement, relatable to anyone who has navigated the complexities of change and identity.

Speaking on the single, Shao Hao said: “This song is almost a diary of my journey from the beginning until now – it’s a story of an immigrant,”, he explains, “”Even now, sometimes I feel caught between two worlds – too British to be fully Chinese, yet sometimes not seen as British enough by others,” he confesses, “This song reflects that journey, how I chased my dreams, left everything behind, and yet found myself asking: ‘Where do I truly belong?’”.

Through its empowering lyrics, Shao powerfully conveys that embracing our differences is not only acceptable but essential to recognising what makes each of us truly unique. This track stands out as exceptionally catchy and easy to sing along to, all while delivering a crucial societal message.

Currently on an inspiring school tour across the country, Just imagine the impact of “Where is My Home” on Gen Z—it’s a profound affirmation of their identities and experiences!

“It’s so important for young people to know it’s OK to be a boy who’s attracted to other boys, it’s OK to feel as though you have a different gender inside of you, it’s OK to be autistic, it’s OK to have a disability,” he says. “I hope that when Gen Z fans hear my music, they realise we’re the people who can work together to build a better, kinder community for everyone. Shao adds.
