Chloe Mogg’s Gritty Anthem “Better Off,” an Ode to Shedding Negativity
In a world where music often serves as a sanctuary, Chloe Mogg’s latest rock single, “Better Off,” emerges as a powerful voice of resilience and a testament to self-empowerment. Hailing from Worcestershire, this emerging artist is no stranger to the vibrant tapestry of emotions that music can weave. With a debut album titled “The Crazy One,” Chloe is carving her name into the annals of the West Midlands music scene, bringing forth a vibrant blend of rock-edge rhythm with pop-blues influences that ignite the soul and defy the naysayers.
“Better Off” is a gritty, alternative rock track that thrusts a defiant middle finger for those who thrive toward negativity with the second teaser from her highly anticipated debut album, “The Crazy One.” Chloe’s inspiration for this anthemic song stemmed from a personal awakening. She explains, “I wrote this at a time in my life when negative people kept weighing me down. I was always a bit of a pushover and let people walk upon me, and then something snapped one day. I thought, ‘You know what, I don’t need that in my life anymore,’ and ‘Better Off’ was born. It’s simple… life’s too short; you don’t need toxic people in it!”
Lyrically, “Better Off” dives deep into the complexities of self-worth and the consequences of succumbing to external pressures. Chloe’s raw vocals encapsulate this empowering sentiment and deliver lines like “If I stick it to a man and forget who I am, does that make me worthy? If I leave it to my thoughts but remember all the loss, would that save the cruelty… all the lies that you spread all my life… I think I’m better off!… alone.”
Musically, “Better Off” offers a captivating evolution, blending pop-blues and alternative rock, a headbanging delight. Chloe’s signature harmonies seamlessly intertwine with fuzz-laden guitar riffs, a pulsating drumbeat, and a danceable rhythm that beckons listeners to hit the nearest dancefloor.
Chloe’s debut album, “The Crazy One,” encapsulates a decade of personal growth, exploring themes of mental health, discrimination towards disabilities, and heartbreak. With the help of Alex Vine Ruiz and an ensemble of talented musicians, including Ali Clinton, Jack Bowles, and Chloe’s father, Ian Mogg, the album is a testament to her resilience and artistic prowess.
Beyond her music, Chloe fervently advocates raising awareness of ‘invisible’ illnesses. Her work on platforms like BBC Radio 1 and BBC News Online, where she discussed discrimination against musicians with disabilities, underscores her commitment to inclusivity in the music industry.
“Better Off” is more than a song; it’s an anthem of empowerment and a testament to the transformative power of music. Chloe Mogg’s fearless approach to music and life is a beacon of hope, reminding us that we are better off without the negativity that seeks to hold us back. This track firmly establishes Chloe as a rising star in the UK rock scene.

Lisa Boostani creates a mesmerizing tidal realm in “Ocean”
Lisa Boostani’s “Ocean” takes you deep into a sensory world where body, spirit, and myth come together, beyond the surface of genre. Boostani makes a soundscape that is both ethereal and deeply human by combining the broad essence of psychedelic pop with the strong appeal of alternative rock.
Her voice rises as if it is coming from deep within her, shaped by emotion rather than action. She intentionally channels the intangible, turning weakness into strength rather than a source of pain, and “Ocean” tells people to get involved in this inner world, not just watch it. This release is an integral part of her first EP, “One,” which will come out in March 2026 and is based on love, sensuality, and unity.
If “Ocean” is any indication, the EP will show sensuality not as something pretty, but as a kind of spiritual intelligence, a way to know yourself by connecting with others. The song’s textures and structure have an aquatic quality, moving between clarity and delirium, rhythm and freedom. Its emotional focus is on immersion instead of resolution.
The striking quality of “Ocean” is the blend of the mystical worlds. Boostani understands that strength often shows up as gentleness and that deep feelings are better expressed through frequencies than words. She wants people to see consciousness as immediacy, sensation as truth, and openness as an undeniable strength.

NOAH. captures the unspoken signals in enchanting R&B track “That’s Bless”
“That’s Bless” captures the unspoken late-night message, the smile that was exchanged from afar, and the feeling you sense but are afraid to say. NOAH. offers a song with a smoky R&B feel and lyrics that capture unspoken tension, firmly in the realm of emotional ambiguity, where connection is clear but not defined.
This piece concerns the subtle discomfort of mixed signals and quiet longings, when looks say more than words ever could. NOAH. handles the theme with restraint, letting the chemistry simmer rather than explode. NOAH.’s delivery shows a confident gentleness, recognizing that some feelings don’t need strict definitions to be real.
In “That’s Bless,” he captures the essence of connection and the compelling allure that endures, even when both parties pretend it is not there. The composition is based on real-life events, and it acknowledges that specific attachments endure in the heart long after one has persuaded oneself of having progressed.
“That’s Bless” is at the crossroads of closeness and distance, clarity and confusion. The song doesn’t resolve the tension it talks about, and that’s what makes it so powerful. It sums up the connection we say we don’t want but keep coming back to in memory, rhythm, and pulse.
