Independent artist Exzenya is quickly making her mark in the alternative scene with a sound that’s equal parts dark electronics and brutal honesty. Since launching on Spotify in May 2025, she’s racked up nearly 60,000 streams while steadily growing her presence across platforms like SoundCloud. Running her own label, Exzenya Productions, means she answers to no one, and that creative freedom shows.

“Love doesn’t always fade quietly. Sometimes it reveals its ugliness all at once, and you can’t unsee it.”
“Ugly When You Love Me” is what happens when the rose-colored glasses shatter and you finally see your relationship for the mess it actually was. Exzenya serves up pure disgust, the kind that comes when you realize the person you loved was actually just really good at playing mind games. The production is tight and tense, with electronic elements that feel intentionally uncomfortable.
Exzenya is calling out the manipulation, the gaslighting, the way toxic people make you question your own sanity until you’re convinced you’re the problem. Exzenya catalogs it all with the precision of someone who’s done the work to understand exactly what happened. We appreciate an artist who refuses to romanticize toxicity or pretend forgiveness is always the answer.
If you’ve ever needed validation that walking away from someone who made you feel crazy was the right call, give “Ugly When You Love Me” a listen.
