Pop sensation, Nessa Barrett has released her highly anticipated new EP, hell is a teenage girl today via Warner Records. The vulnerable and captivating 8-song EP was written to represent the “8 stages of a breakup”, making it the 20-year-old songstress’s most emotional release to date.
The EP boasts the ominous new song “the one that should’ve got away,” an eerie piano-driven tale filled with danger and regret. It also includes the heart-wrenching “plane to paris” and standout title track “hell is a teenage girl,” which takes aim at the way women are treated in the industry.
“You’re barely a woman and they call you a whore, say that you’re ruined when you pass 24,” she sings over a haunting piano. “I’m too sensitive when I start to cry, but I’m a cold-hearted outside bitch when I keep it inside.” It’s a staggeringly honest account of the brutal expectations that newcomers face. Other songs on the EP include latest single “lie,” “motel whore,” “heartbreak in the hamptons,” and previously-released fan-favorites “BANG BANG!” and “american jesus.”
The project picks up where Nessa left off in 2022, by demonstrating incredible songwriting prowess and versatility on a series of stunning singles like “die first,” “tired of california,” and “lovebomb” — all taken from her critically acclaimed debut album, young forever.
Along with the EP release, Nessa will be dropping a new merch line including a T-shirt that will unlock exclusive content and rewards with an embedded NFC chip.
