Similarly, “Nymphology” tells listeners to embrace their true selves. “Tunnel Vision” highlights empowerment in a meaningful way. It tackles mental health and introspection with lyrics highlighting the feeling of judging yourself and being your own worst critic while trying to escape those thoughts.įemininity and self-worth are also prevalent on “Portals.” Tracks such as “Tunnel Vision,” “Moon Cycle” and “Nymphology” address these ideas. “Death” segues into the next track “Void”, which was fully produced by Martinez. Her latest persona has taken many fans by surprise due to its alienesque design of four eyes, a cat’s mouth, pink skin and fairy wings. The five-minute song has comforting lyrics about rebirth and the video shows the reincarnation of her previous character, Crybaby. The 13-track album begins with the song “Death” – which was released prior to the album along with a music video. After delivering multiple hit albums in the years since, the New York native has returned from a two-year hiatus with her latest project, titled “Portals.” When Melanie Martinez was 16 years old, she performed on “The Voice,” in an attempt to jump-start her singing career.
