After releasing a string of successful singles earlier this year, R&B songstress Janel Marisse officially released her EP The New Order, available everywhere today. Stepping into a new territory musically, the 8-track offering leans into her dark side. Janel finds empowerment by showing her seductive and mystical side, along with ethereal vocals delivering lyrics with an edge.

“My bright and fun-loving persona has begun to hide my truth in innocence. Now more than ever, I have been finding the beauty in the dark moments of my journey,” Janel says, speaking on the EP. “In this project, I demonstrate how the idea of destruction can be beautiful. ‘The New Order’ is a collection of art that pushes the culture of music beyond normalcy. My goal with this project is to empower women of all backgrounds and show that power comes in many different forms!”

Akin to dark love spells, Janel Marisse conjures feelings of lust, power, and destruction for a hypnotic project that draws you in and leaves you breathless. Upon diving into the full-length project, Janel Marisse delves into elements of love, control, and more throughout its entirety. Stream her latest release below.
