LISTEN: “Distraction” by AleXa (알렉사)

From the unstoppable K-pop star, AleXa, comes an infectious and in your face track that makes me think of Paramore and Echosmith. With her latest track, “Distraction”, AleXa is calling out those who knowingly disrespect themselves in relationships and giving them a sign that it’s about damn time that they step into knowing their worth!

Treading through the topics of self worth and rebound relationships, AleXa gives two pieces of expert advice:

  • knowing your worth in love is crucial
  • a rebound is never the answer

On the song, AleXa says,

“I wanted to create a song that speaks to anyone who has ever felt undervalued in a relationship. ‘distraction’ is about recognizing your worth and not allowing yourself to be anyone’s second choice. It’s a reminder to everyone that love is a two-way street, and you deserve someone who respects and cherishes you.”

With her fiery f-you attitude, AleXa belts out crystal clear vocals that are pop rock perfection. AleXa’s not trying to be ethereal or willowy in her message and that’s what makes the song. Her vocals are not only vulnerable, but chock full of attitude and irritation.

Through her honest lyrics and the high energy beat, AleXa shares a pointed story that it’s time to move along to better things instead of wallowing in the benefit of a half-assed relationship or situationship..

Don’t be full of regret. Listen to “Distraction” by AleXa now. It’s for your own emotional well-being.
