If you love Ariana Grande and Hailee Steinfeld, you’ll love this new release from one of Pop music’s hot newcomers, ALITA.  “Bodies” is a departure from ALITA’s most recent singles “Human Nature” and “Too Close” – which delved into the toxicity of unhealthy romantic behavior and landed on Spotify’s official ‘Fresh: Pop’ and TIDAL’s Rising: Pop – and instead tackles the topic of sex from a strong female perspective. 

After realizing her male collaborators were lacking the feminine energy the song required, ALITA chose to go at the writing process alone. ALITA explains, “I’m almost always the only woman in the room when I’m writing music. I love and value my male collaborators, but there’s a different energy and camaraderie that comes from female collaboration and I was craving that. I’d wanted to write a song like ‘Bodies’ for a long time, but felt like the unconscious biases in the room would affect my writing and my openness…I was worried the heart of it would get lost in translation. Eventually I realized that I had all of the instinct to explore it by myself, so I did.“

Outside of music, ALITA is nothing if not driven and focused. Her background in business and sales helps her balance the importance of authentic writing and strategic marketing in all that she does. She thinks like an artist, plans like a manager, and executes like a label. On paper, ALITA is new to the music landscape and undefined to the public, leaving her potential equally untapped and unstoppable. But in reality, she’s been honing her craft and learning the business her whole life – making her a force to be reckoned with whether on stage, in the studio, or in a meeting.

ALITA is an up and coming Seattle-born artist, performer, and writer. Her genre-bending pop music incorporates influences from India.Arie, LEON, and Julia Michaels, proving once again that all it takes is a unique voice and something to say to stand apart. Blurring the lines between synth pop and R&B, her focus is one thing only: tell a story, and tell it honestly.

No doubt, ALITA is going to be one that you’re going to watch out for. Her unique voice combined with her insane production, lyrics, etc — is no doubt, our newest obsession. You’re going to want to watch out for her and you can do so by staying connected with her across all major social media platforms including Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.
