A Mirrorball Of Emotion

Few songs manage to shimmer while cutting so deep, but “HATE IT HERE” is built on contradiction. ALEXIS layers glossy synths and a playful rhythm beneath raw admissions of self-doubt, creating a soundscape that feels like a mirrorball spinning in the dark: beautiful, fractured, and endlessly reflective.

Her songwriting is as intimate as it is universal. The way she frames identity and self-acceptance feels deeply personal, yet instantly relatable. It’s the kind of lyricism that draws comparisons to Olivia Rodrigo or Maisie Peters, but ALEXIS pushes further by weaving her cultural heritage into the narrative, adding another dimension to her artistry.

The result is a song that doesn’t just make you move—it makes you think. “HATE IT HERE” insists that pop can be layered and luminous, that we can hold both joy and ache in the same breath. In doing so, ALEXIS cements herself as one of the most compelling new voices in pop.
