The album thrives on collaboration while keeping Shafey's vision front and center. The result is an immersive collection that dismantles damaging beauty standards, celebrates women's strength, and offers listeners a jolt of empowerment.
As she navigates through a soundscape crafted with chugging guitars and ethereal synths, Shafey not only redefines her musical identity but also challenges the listener to embrace a narrative of strength and self-discovery.
“Don’t Be Afraid of the Dark” is both grungy and introspective, with an ultra-catchy instrumental that will get anyone up and dancing.
“Messin Around” and its music video, oozing with vintage charm, the song evokes 1960s-era girl groups but with edgy guitars that uphold The Paper Bag Princess’s 1990s grunge aesthetic. Wits catchy melodies and upbeat tempo.
With impeccable production and thoughtful lyrics, Shafey reaffirms her commitment to messages that challenge social and cultural norms, achieving a perfect balance between emotional depth and musical energy.
