Sway's Universe: What’s the backstory on Black Widow?

Ernie Gaines: Black widow is a never ending love story about a girl I

used to know. Although physically we no longer exist, metaphysically

tht love burns eternally. Or is it all in my head?

SU: What do you want fans to walk away with after listening to your music?

EG: I want fans to walk away with a true connection and a sense of

nostalgia when they listen to my music.
