ARI LEE shares ‘The One’, the third single from her upcoming EP Trophy Wife in Training. The Hong Kong and Portugal-born, London-based artist is known for channeling feminine rage, social commentary and the realities of navigating societal expectations into anthems of liberation, independence and ambition.
‘The One’ begins with a brooding, suspenseful atmosphere before ARI LEE’s detailed and emotive vocals tell the story of a romance that never materialised. Written about getting lost in the idea of love and facing the sting of disappointment, the single blends indie-rock grit with pop accessibility, creating an alluring and infectious sound.
“Growing up, I loved fairy tales. I always aspired to have that one true love, which led to losing myself in a lot of relationships. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve come to realise that the idea of ‘The One’ may not exist. Maybe the person that I was looking to love me the whole time was myself, and that’s what this song is about,” says ARI LEE.
Due later this year, Trophy Wife in Training promises a bold fusion of alt-pop and pop-rock, marked by upbeat and dramatic production. ARI LEE’s writing remains layered and unapologetic without sacrificing the irresistible pull of her melodies.
After earning Spotify Editorial’s New Music Friday spotlight across Asia, ARI LEE is continuing to build her presence in the indie alt-pop scene. With sharp, infectious delivery and a knack for telling personal yet universal stories, she is fast becoming one of the names to watch.
