XTIE invites us on an emotional journey through the city she once called home with the official visual for '+852'.

Set against the often-overlooked corners of Hong Kong, the music video captures the quiet beauty of familiarity as XTIE sings of migration, longing, and the search for belonging. The track’s title — Hong Kong’s international dialling code — becomes more than just digits; it’s a symbol of home, identity, and distance.

With soaring vocals, pulsing basslines, and cinematic synths reminiscent of Wong Kar-wai’s nostalgic universe, '+852' is a bold yet tender anthem for Third Culture Kids and anyone navigating the in-between spaces of culture and home.

Co-written in France with Berlin-based songwriter Joel Miles and produced with French producer mammouth, the cross-continental collaboration breathes a global heartbeat into the track’s deeply local soul.

“This song is incredibly personal, yet I believe its message will resonate with so many people from different walks of life,” says XTIE.

Whether you’ve just landed in a new city or are reminiscing about streets you used to walk, '+852' is a reminder of where you come from — and where you’re going.
