Addison Rae Transforms the Divine Feminine Into a Hit Record in "Aquamarine”
Pop princess Addison Rae is hot off the tails of her viral hit “Diet Pepsi” and is showing no signs of stopping anytime soon. Her new single “Aquamarine” is a soul-cleansing empowerment anthem, incorporating even more sonic experimentalism in the very early stages of her artist project. Written and produced with the same talented women as “Diet Pepsi,” Luka Kloser and Elvira Anderfjärd, “Aquamarine” is as if the divine feminine was transformed into a hit record.
In this fantastic electro-pop feast, Addison declares over a soft house beat, “The world is my oyster and I’m the only, girl.” Saying it is one thing, but embodying it at every angle is a feat that comes naturally for this rising superstar. Reminiscent of '90s Madonna (even proclaiming that she’s a “Ray of light”), “Aquamarine” gracefully toes the line between traditional pop structure and sultry experimentalism. Although this track would’ve been perfect for a summertime release, the timing is divine as Addison leads by example. There’s no better time than now to evoke your inner mermaid and embrace your truest self, and “Aquamarine” is the perfect soundtrack to make that happen for anyone who listens.
Addison’s music is so true to who she is, a woman who knows her worth and loves herself so radically that it becomes art. In “Aquamarine” she encourages us to never hide from the world and to focus on our own power, no matter what people say. The music video only adds to this notion, showcasing Rae’s deep-rooted love for dancing and being playful in her artistic expression, while evoking iconic imagery from Kubrick’s seminal “Eyes Wide Shut” and roaming the streets of Paris, completely carefree.
“Aquamarine” is an impressive follow-up to yet another viral moment for this social media star turned pop icon, showing the world that she’s not intimidated by success in any form. Addison’s artistic vision contains multitudes, but she will never stray from who she truly is. We cannot wait to continue following her career as it endlessly blossoms.
