Royal & the Serpent Releases New EP “RAT TRAP 4: the burden”
This year, American singer-songwriter Ryan Santiago, aka Royal & the Serpent has released her RAT TRAP saga every month.
On September 1, she released the fourth installment in her monthly series of new songs “RAT TRAP 4: the burden”.
“RAT TRAP 4: the burden” includes “u ruined frank ocean for me”, “separation anxiety”, and “oops”.
The EP exists in a soft sonic palette with themes scoping many different facets of love. Unrequited, anxious, and avoidant - each song tells a tale from Royal’s personal experience with romance.
“u ruined frank ocean 4 me” is the track about an ex spoiling your favorite artist.
“separation anxiety” is accompanied by the Ryan Santiago-directed music video and draws self-sabotage, along with a graceful air of acceptance and apology.
“oops” tells a story of regrettable intimacy in a light-hearted and quirky form.- source : Apple Music
