Stuck in a rut when it comes to the dating game? Feel like there's no way to start a meaningful, loving relationship with a guy, especially in the age of Grindr? Well, you're not alone—Wils knows exactly how you feel. 

The up-and-coming, out, Singaporean pop star just released the music video for his latest track called "Empty," and in it, he explores how isolating and lonely the modern queer dating landscape can be, and what a struggle it can is to try to find self-love when all people want to do is hookup.

"Sometimes the biggest challenge we have to face is the internal struggle we have with ourselves," the singer said about the emotional track in a statement. "'Empty' is about facing that loneliness when we’re looking for love outside of ourselves instead of within ourselves."
