New York singer and rapper LEX channels heartbreak into self-awareness on punchy yet poignant alt-punk offering "Cigarettes." Led by a confessional energy, the track sways between self-destruction and the efforts to bring yourself back from the edge.
Framed by empowerment and vulnerability in equal parts, the raw offering unfurls the chaos of real life spanning everything from addiction and heartbreak to loss, and survival. With catchy rock sensibilities giving way to stripped back storytelling, the track brims with a sense of honesty that's as tender as it is jagged and gritty.
Speaking of the track, she says, “I hope people learn from my mistakes and realize that they are not alone in the struggles of addiction. I have managed to find peace again and I know others will too.”
Having shaped a powerful musical signature built on poignant lyricism and bold sonics, LEX taps into comfort, catharsis and creativity with her craft.
