“Scars In Stereo is a mirrored image of my journey via the music business,” SIPPY mentioned in a press release. “It captures the wins, but additionally the despair, disassociation and misconduct I’ve confronted alongside the way in which. Greater than something, this album is about resilience. It’s about standing up, pushing via and proudly owning my story.”
The album opens with its titular monitor, a spoken-word piece that looks like the muse for all the things that follows. Over light piano strikes, SIPPY speaks straight concerning the weight of expectation: “Who cares what I’ve to say, until it suits with the established order.” Her tone grows sharper because the monitor builds, culminating within the admission, “I can’t sleep, I can’t eat, however I nonetheless should reply to all of the hate.”
“Huge Awake” follows, capturing the exhaustion of fixed self-doubt as No/Me) sings, “Can’t go to sleep when the sky is burning down on repeat.” Her vocals float above textured percussion and synths that mirror the unease of sleepless nights.
Within the center stretch of the album, SIPPY examines her personal patterns. “Like I’m Excessive” twists via wobbly bass and fragmented vocals, the tone shifting between reflection and give up as she explores the dizzying highs and lows of self-discovery. When she laughs and admits, “I don’t fucking get it,” it lands like a candid admission in a monitor centered round existential uncertainty.
“FUKT UP” (with Vibrant Sparks) follows with heady, seductive vitality, delivering hypnotic manufacturing via glossy low-end textures and darkish, intoxicating rhythms. Beneath its floor, the monitor pulses with resistance, channeling the stress of an artist pushing again towards the calls for that after confined her. “Can we simply faux?” then lands as a delicate counterpart, easing the stress with light melodies and glacial pacing. The lyrics trace at escapism and the need to step outdoors oneself as she asks, “Why can’t I disguise inside your eyes?”
“Residence” continues that slowdown with ethereal synths and a restrained vocal that drifts between the consolation of dwelling and the sensation of being untethered. The monitor captures a craving for grounding within the face of displacement, that intuition to return to one thing acquainted even when that place feels distant. “Every time I’m dwelling and I don’t know the place I’m,” she repeats, her voice looking for stability within the blur.

She closes the album with “Subsequent Up,” a press release piece that lands with conviction and appears ahead reasonably than again. A collaboration with PLSMA and Artifice, the monitor incorporates a assured introduction (“I hold attempting to inform y’all it’s not the identical me) over an assertive, funk-fueled beat that builds right into a burst of momentum.
