Mya Angelique’s paper girls is delicate, devastating, and dazzling — a perfect storm of poetic heartache and glittering pop-rock. Each song is a confessional, cut from the pages of a teenage diary but elevated with emotional clarity and musical finesse. Influenced by storytelling queens like Gracie Abrams and Maisie Peters, Mya finds her own voice in the cracks — the places where confidence wavers, where joy is complicated, and where feelings are too big for the room.
There’s an unfiltered brilliance to tracks like “sixteen” and “the comedown,” which reveal the internal push-pull of wanting to grow up and fearing what that means. “quick-brush” feels like a soft exhale, while “teenage girl nationality” explodes with defiant wit and self-awareness. The EP’s title track is a true highlight — sonically subtle but emotionally seismic, capturing the fragile strength that defines its name. It’s paper-thin but sharp enough to leave a mark.
More than just a strong debut, paper girls introduces Mya Angelique as a storyteller unafraid of her own depth. These aren’t just songs — they’re experiences, stitched together with grace, grit, and gorgeous melody. It’s rare to hear someone so young sound this sure of their emotional range, and even rarer to hear it sound this good. Press play, press repeat, and prepare to feel seen.
