BENEE has announced her sophomore album, Ur An Angel I’m Just Particles, which is set for release on November 7 via Republic Records. It’s led by the vibrant, infectious new single ‘Cinnamon’, which comes paired with a Keith Herron-directed video. Check it out below.
“I’ve been working on this for about three years now, and I’m so happy to finally be releasing my second album!” BENEE shared in a statement. “I worked so hard on this and had a really clear story for the album. Over time, it really started to make sense, and I’m so proud of it—it means the world to me!”
She continued: “I wrote ‘Cinnamon’ with my friend Ryan Raines, who is an incredible producer. We made it about a year ago, and I have loved the song from the start. I’m so stoked to be sharing it with the world, it means a lot to me. I wrote it about moving to LA and feeling a little bit lost in the chaos, like everything was falling apart. It felt like nothing was working. The chorus is quite ethereal and a nice let go for me. I thought, ‘Well even if everything around me has turned to shit, I’m going to stay sweet, still be kind, and attract the right kind of people.’ I got my friend Sora to play the cello in the bridge, which I LOVE. I cry sometimes when I listen to that part. And it’s such a fun song to perform live!”
