Typically, the romance songs I indulge myself in center around topics such as heartbreak, deception, and unrequited love. However, that does not mean that I don’t like to listen to songs praising love! And I think I’ve found the perfect song for all of you love-sick romantics out there. “psychic” is the latest release by up-and-coming artist Lenox Monroe, and is sure to get you in a romantic mood. The song centers around a lover who seemingly always knows what to say at the right moment, and how they seemingly always know what their partner wants to say before they even get a chance to say it themselves. It even has a similar sound and vibe to the music that artists such as Camilla Cabello and Ariana Grande would write. It was refreshing, and I loved getting to listen to it!
I think for only having one other released song under her belt, Lenox Monroe shows a lot of promise! I even found myself dancing around my tiny apartment, blasting the song on my TV, and just enjoying every second of it. I think one of Lenox’s strong suits is undoubtedly her songwriting skills. She managed to convey the giddy feeling of being in love in an amazing way. “‘Cause boy I know you like it / How I’m a psychic / I read your mind when you look at me.” I also think that Lenox has an incredibly healthy voice that adds a lot of depth and emotion to the song! I’m surprised she hasn’t been discovered sooner!
Lenox Monroe is new to the scene, but has a lot going for her already! Lenox first got her start in music at the age of 12, when she took private classical voice lessons. And throughout middle and high school, she involved herself in musical theater and choir. She began writing her own music when she attended the Interlochen Arts Academy in Interlochen, MI. She would write songs and send them to her best friend, who would encourage her to continue. After her friend died in a car accident in 2018, however, she continued to write music in honor of her. Now, she has two songs released on Spotify, including “psychic,” and she plans to release much, much more. I’m excited to watch her grow as an artist, and I cannot wait to hear what she releases next.
