King of Cups, neon pop-punk, alternative, pop-rock, emo-pop duo led by Sugar Shaun and BryGuy, is back with their highly anticipated track "Waited." This track took the longest to produce and record, with vocals being rerecorded and lyrics rewritten several times, which almost led to it not being released. But with their last-minute and final rewrite, “Waited” was finally released on July 30th. “Waited” representing the element spirit behind their upcoming EP, Elemental, is filled with the raw emotion of being in love with someone, and waiting for them to accept your love, and you wait for that day, but they never do.
