Release Info/credits
The single “my fault” from the debut album “dear me” by Veronica Esev – affects a relationship characterized by an ambulance of power and a persistent pattern of unfair blame. The singer feels perpetually responsible for the relationship problems, even when they’re not at fault, and constantly strives for validation from the other person, which is never received. This leads to resentment and a growing sense of injustice. The repeated refrain, “It’s always been my fault, hasn’t it?”, highlights this feeling of helplessness and the frustrating inability to escape the cycle of blame. The final verses mark a turning point, expressing a defiant rejection of this dynamic and a reclaiming of personal power. The imagery of “bleeding” and “red” suggests a willingness to fight for self-worth, even at a cost.
The main focus is on the Spotify and Apple Music platforms. On the day of the album’s release, an advertisement with a budget of $100 was launched. Also, as part of the further promotion of the album, a music video for the presented single will be released, as well as a short film about the creation of the album as a whole, while it is also planned to release live versions of 5 songs from the album in the near future.
Veronica Esev is a nineteen-year-old singer-songwriter who calls herself a “small bedroom artist”. Her career in music began when she was eight years old. She entered a music school, where she majored in choral singing.
In 2022, Veronica released her debut single “Next to You”, which was written when she was sixteen. On January 17, 2025, she presented her debut album “dear me”, which includes 12 songs written and produced by her independently between the ages of 17 and 19 and a half years. In its first week, the album received more than 1,000 hits on various platforms.
Artist’s latter about album
Dear me,
It all starts small, as it always does. I remember standing in the shower, reflecting on my experiences, and suddenly, the realization hit me: this whole situation is “the book of my life that I don’t wanna read.” This metaphor settled in my mind, becoming the spark that ignited the first song and inspired me to create the entire album.
To say that I was apprehensive about being vulnerable during the album’s creation is an understatement. With these songs, I laid all my cards on the table, leaving no room for retreat. These melodies became the map to the world of my dreams, and there was no turning back.
Making an album is an incredibly challenging endeavor, from the initial writing to the production process. But the difficulties are amplified when you don’t have a team of collaborators, just musical instruments, a microphone, a computer, and yourself. I wrote every lyric, crafted every melody, and oversaw every aspect of the production. On top of that, I’m handling the promotion completely independently.
I know my album might not be a masterpiece, but for me, it’s a triumph. Veronica, the girl who began writing these songs at 17 and finished them at nearly 20, never believed she could grow so much in her craft. I’m proud of myself, for the sake of that little girl who dreamt of becoming a singer since childhood, writing her own songs and pleading with her parents to enroll her in music school. This album is a testament to that dream.
I truly hope that my songs can resonate with others and offer them the solace they need. I hope it will be an example that no matter how unrealistic a dream may seem, it can become your reality if you take small steps towards it every day. Because while faith is important, action is what genuinely transforms dreams into reality.
With love,
Me
