STELLA ANGELIKA SELF CARE

‘Self Care’ is a touching ballad from Stella Angelika. The track is an on-the-nose discussion of mental health that promotes taking a bit of time for ourselves when we need it. She places her well-thought-out and meaningful lyrics over a calming beat provided by subtle drums and perfectly mixed electric guitar wanderings. On the message behind the track, Angelika says: “think people often hold the belief that taking time to tend to ourselves is innately selfish. I am so guilty of this, I’m terrible at carving out time for myself, I rarely take days off and often push myself till I break.” Keep an eye on this North London artist over the course of 2021. -Dan Peeke
