"Eastside" is a song by American record producer Benny Blanco and American singers Halsey and Khalid.[1] The song was released on July 12, 2018 as Blanco's debut single.[2][3] The single debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 in the issue dated July 28, 2018, at number 56,[4] and peaked at number 9 on the chart, marking Blanco's first top 10 credited as an artist and his 27th top 10 as a songwriter.[5] Additionally, "Eastside" spent a record-tying 45 weeks on Billboard's Pop Songs radio airplay chart.[6] Outside of the United States, it reached number one in the United Kingdom, Ireland, New Zealand and Singapore, and number two in Australia and Denmark.

Composition

"Eastside" is originally in the key of A major, with a tempo of 88 beats per minute and a chord progression of F♯m–E–A–D–E.[7] The song is musically based around a "hazily" plucked guitar riff.[1] Lyrically, "Eastside" discusses the development and complexities of a forbidden romantic relationship; it also discusses maturing, similar to a coming of age story.[3][8]

Release

Blanco premiered the song on July 12 on the Beats 1 station on Apple Music, in an interview with Zane Lowe.[8] The song was then released for streaming and as a download, and the music video was released on the same day.[4][8]

Live performances

Blanco, Halsey, and Khalid performed the song at the American Music Awards of 2018, with a "bedroom setting". Halsey also performed "Eastside" solo on her 2018 tour.[9] In February 2019, Halsey performed the entire song live on Saturday Night Live. During her performance of the song, she painted an upside-down portrait of a woman's head on the floor of the stage.[10]
