JALENKWRIGHT Liv.e is boldly putting herself out there by taking on almost every artistic endeavor on 'Girl In The Half Pearl'. From posing nude on the cover, to directing and starring in the music videos for "Ghost" and "Wild Animals", to producing the vast majority of the project (shouts out to Mndsgn). I was privileged to hear "Find Out" during an intimate performance at Laylow in London last year (Liv.e even played it twice)! Influences abound, her body of work continues to grow with me upon each listen. Favorite track: Underground.

I stayed awake till dawn I felt that shit inside me That you were really gone You left before they showed me... You left and then they called You were all alone You walked on the side streets You had nowhere to go Can’t stay right beside me Can’t stay right beside me Can’t stay right beside me... Ain't get no sleep at all Just lookin all behind yourself Don’t wanna be at fault Wanna come back you can't resist Wanna come back cause you know you miss Wanna find your way back home Hate to leave all along Just let me be at home Just lookin all behind myself Wasn't secure all along I know I said I don’t need help Just wanna get back home Just wanna get back home...

Find Out 02:28
Watch the leaves fall down in the summer Pick a flower too young from his mother So hot take my coat off when it’s late at night So cold I turn him into another Watch the phone light up Turn it face down Feel my heart sinkin into the gutter Surely we’ll make it back to another round can’t risk it findin out just what I could’ve It’s so hard to make it easy thinkin about it way too much I’m dreading thinkin bout you All the voices say it’s dust I’m steady losin my cool Can I go on go through Bein in love with you I guess we’ll find out find out baby The hard way I guess we’ll find find out find out the hard way Feel the sun burnin on my shoulders Everyday on my chest like a boulder Cryin spillin tears into the late night there’s more than 50 ways to leave your lover Sittin alone I’m talkin on the phone Not with you though why i even bother I think Im ready for some precious time alone I hope you know I love you like no other I guess we’ll find out find out baby the hard way I guess we’ll find out find out baby the hard way

about

LA-based, Dallas-raised artist Liv.e, announces her sophomore album 'Girl In The Half Pearl' due February 10th via In Real Life. 'Girl In The Half Pearl' seizes on both the creative and personal liberation Liv.e has experienced in the time since her 2020 debut album 'Couldn't Wait To Tell You...'. The album's 17 tracks are a document of self-examination, as she works through realizations prompted by grief and grapples with the dynamics of her role in the relationships in her life. Building upon the foundation she laid with CWTTY, 'Girl In The Half Pearl' bares her process of growth, forgiveness and reclamation of her sense of womanhood across an immersive soundscape. The album's artistic shifts developed during her time experimenting with live performance in London earlier this year while under residency at London's Laylow.

The 25-year-old artist first garnered attention with her 2017 EP, FRANK, and 2018's Hoopdreams EP. Over the past year, Liv.e shared the standalone Mndsgn-produced single "Bout It," along with a COLORS performance and released 'CWTTY+', the deluxe version of her 2020 critically-acclaimed debut album. She's since performed alongside Earl Sweatshirt and Ravyn Lenae. Liv.e's unique sensibilities have also caught the eye of the fashion world, marked by an appearance in a Miu Miu ad campaign photographed by Tyrone Lebon. Most recently, she was featured on the new Mount Kimbie single titled "a deities encore."
