The successor to their debut album Pulses, Leo Rising, is set to be released sometime in 2016 and is wholly recorded by only Karmin with Nick Noonan producing every track. It is a concept album based on the zodiac sign where every song released on the album is based on a zodiac sign, "Come with Me (Pure Imagination)" is the Leo track.

Promotion

Critical reception

Luiz Gonzalez from Album Confessions gave a positive review saying; "a sense of the duo's own style is present. With minimal, raw production (the hand claps, the backing vocals) and emotive delivery, the release sounds like an honest creation with R&B flare, not a desperate label push."[4] Hayden Manders from Nylon called said that "This song dives deep into the creative part of the sign and is a track about finding courage within yourself."[5]

Music video

On the day of the single's release, an audio video was released with a gif of a lagoon repeating as the song played. According to a comment left by Karmin on the video, the lagoon is the setting of the upcoming music video set to be released "soon".[6][7] The music video was released on March 2, 2016. [8]
