The pandemic has been a time of reflection and tumult for many, but for Canadian pop artist Alexis Lynn, it provided a deep dive into her psyche and some long-simmering struggles, culminating in her aptly titled album Real Talk – check it out on YouTube here:
A collection of pop bangers and soulful confessions – including her single “Fall Apart,” which holds steady at No. 5 on the Indigenous Music Countdown – Real Talk is Alexis Lynn’s most authentic, raw work to date.
“When I started writing the album, I honestly didn’t really know where it was going, but it kind of wrote itself,” she recalls. “It turned into this beautiful story of struggling with mental health, adopting unhealthy coping mechanisms, and then finally coming out on the other side. It terrifies me to have been so honest, but I’m also really proud of it.”
