Chicago standout Heartbreak Homie has shared a brand new album, titled Social Butterfly. Heartbreak Homie is a versatile artist from the southside of Chicago. The self proclaimed popstar prides herself on her writing skills, song making skills, ability to change her cadence and flows at the drop of the dime. As a true hip-hop lover, Heartbreak mostly delivers a melodic rap but always manages to sing and give her fans a ballad, deep R&B cut or pop hit. Inspired by greats like Michael Jackson, Drake, Chance the Rapper and Beyonce, Heartbreak makes it a priority to remain vulnerable in her music and give the listeners something they can smoke to. She also obsesses over fashion, film and dance. She has recently dropped off a new album, titled Social Butterfly, that tackles various genres like hip-hop, rap, R&B, house, and more to a cohesive effect. Packed with vibrancy, energy, and authenticity, Social Butterfly bursts with creativity and potency. Tracks like “Off With They Head” present a raw side of Heartbreak, with a hard-hitting instrumental and cutting, poignant vocals. While breezy, elegant tracks like “Summertime” and “Falling in Love” introduce engaging R&B-laced songwriting that has melodies lingering in the listener’s memory long after the tracks are complete. “Today” makes for a strong closer with its warm, soulful sound and hypnotic introspective mood.
