The track perfectly encapsulates the allure and appeal of unhealthy toxic relationships
On her enticing new single ‘Poison’, CLOUT favourite Arden Alexa continues to showcase the devastating charm and appeal that has characterised her sound and won her so much adulation and acclaim over the last few years, melding atmospheric darkness with thoughtful synths and instrumentation to craft an exciting modern pop banger.
The track delves into themes like toxic attraction and the allure of the forbidden, with the artist knowing full well that she is in a dangerous and unhealthy situation but still not able to pull herself away completely. The extremity of the line “I can feel myself dying, but I kinda like it” perfectly conveys the nonsensical and irrational nature of the relationship and the artist’s behaviour, but the sultry darkness of the sound and its delectably catchiness make it sound inviting and exciting at the same time.
