With Divorce, Housewife takes a more introspective turn while maintaining the effervescent alt-pop sound she’s known for. The result is her most vulnerable, reflective, and anthemic release yet.
Speaking about the new release, she said,
“Divorce is a really personal one for me- I wrote it after experiencing really bad heartbreak that kind of blindsided me and completely uprooted me. It’s about not only mourning the person and the relationship you have with them, but also the life you were building together. It’s about starting to rebuild and the struggle between needing to protect yourself, but also not wanting to be involved in something adversarial with someone who has hurt you. The process of making this song was completely different than any others of mine- it was written in about half an hour which is definitely the fastest I’ve ever managed.”
Divorce, is a standout moment in her discography, capturing everything fans love about her unique alt-pop sound. A perfect blend of power and delicacy, the track pairs strong, commanding riffs with her soft, emotive vocals—a challenging balance that Housewife executes flawlessly.
The highlight of the song comes with its immaculate drop, a moment that pulls you directly into the heart of the track’s energy and emotion. It’s the kind of song that instantly makes you feel like the main character in your own story, with its anthemic quality and cinematic flair.
With Divorce, Housewife delivers one of her strongest releases yet, showcasing her ability to craft tracks that are both intimate and empowering. It’s a must-listen for anyone seeking an alt-pop anthem to get lost in.
The repeated line “I’m not the enemy” carries a quiet strength, bringing the song to a close with an emotional resonance. As the track winds down, this refrain ties everything together, leaving a subtle yet lasting impression on the listener.
