Alpha

Alpha is a space for redefining the meaning of a woman’s power. Power doesn’t have to be about fighting, standing up, or changing history. The power of these artists lies in their existence. From there flows truth, authenticity, vulnerability, nuanced representation. This week, Demi Lovato puckers up with “Kiss”—a track off her newly released album It’s Not That Deep. With the electronic bop, Lovato makes it clear what she wants: “Kiss me/Like one of your French girls/Like one of your bad boys/Just tie me up and twist me/Like eating a cherry/Don’t care that I barely even know ya.” Enter Alpha now and add it to your library to keep in touch with the women making music on their terms, uplifting one another and challenging notions through the simple matter of being. Now, that’s real power.
