A fresh new voice is making waves in the music world, and it’s one you won’t forget anytime soon. Emerging artist Bellzzz welcomes listeners into her intricate, shadowy wonderland with the release of her debut single, “Plastic Unicorns.”
More than just a song, “Plastic Unicorns” is an invitation into a world where fantasy and reality blur, loneliness meets hope, and every note carries a deeper meaning.
The track tells a dual narrative, intertwining Bellzzz’s personal reflections with the story of Elizabeth—a fictional character born from her imagination yet deeply connected to her own struggles with identity, isolation, and the longing for something more. Together, their journeys create an emotional depth that is both intimate and universal.
Infused with haunting production, “Plastic Unicorns” layers swirling soundscapes and evocative samples, stirring emotions and memories that linger long after listening. The result is a mesmerizing blend of “poisoned pop”—a delicate yet unsettling fusion of vulnerability and hypnotic darkness.
With this striking debut, Bellzzz sets the stage for an unforgettable artistic journey, marking the arrival of a bold new talent ready to leave a lasting imprint on the industry.
Bellzzz comments on “Plastic Unicorns”
“‘Plastic Unicorns’ is about how, when I’m feeling low and unfulfilled, it manifests physically. Being neurodivergent can sometimes make you feel like a misfit—unseen, disconnected.”
“The song reflects that desire for something real beyond the superficial. ‘There must be more than fake fairytales and plastic unicorns.’ It’s about people telling you to just ‘cheer up and take a walk’ when, deep down, you’re craving vibrant adventures and a sense of belonging,”
You can stream “Plastic Unicorns” on Spotify and all other major streaming platforms.
