Ari Abdul Shares Debut EP Fallen Angel
20-year-old artist Ari Abdul has released her debut EP Fallen Angel. As its title suggests, Fallen Angel is a pop-noir work, levitated by alluring melodies and Abdul’s warm, luminescent vocals. Growing up in Catholic School, she became enamored with the story of Lucifer and the “fallen angel” narrative.
The EP’s most alluring quality is how it gives you glimmers into who Abdul is, mingling tenebrous fantasy with her personal story. These twisted narratives come to life in tracks like the narcotic slow-jam “BABYDOLL,” the ethereal-pop “STAY,” and the shimmering-seductive “TASTE.”
Ari describes Fallen Angel like this: “You have like these nice, lovely, innocent sounding songs. And by the end of the EP, the songs get really distorted and heavier, and the lyrics get darker. Maybe there’ll be an emotion or a little something that happens in my life in a song, but the EP is completely storytelling. We keep pretty melodies, but still have production and lyrics that completely contradict those pretty melodies.”
Releasing alongside Fallen Angel is the official music video for “HUSH.” The haunting visual is directed by Erik Rojas (Kaskade, Jessie J). Watch HERE.
