The interpreter shares with us her own evolution, from the instrumental to the personal, and how to manage, according to her perspective, to emerge unscathed from the dichotomies that accompany us.

Her first instrument is the piano, although her inexhaustible curiosity has led her to experiment and be self-taught with other resources, such as the guitar. Similarly, writing has manifested itself throughout her life as one of her great strengths. Combining this series of passions and interests, the result is a creation that comes directly from her soul . A fusion that proposes a fresh and authentic voice .
Mitski confesses that, recently , she has noticed that he unconsciously follows a pattern in terms of musical production: on the first album she had an approach to a new idea , which she deepened on the second . Once the cycle is complete, it moves into a fully independent concept. Therefore, it is not surprising that both her albums and her songs have some continuity . Stories telling themselves .

By the time she signed with a label , and released her fifth and sixth albums , she had the creative process fully mastered and was able to meld his past experiences .
However , she perceived a problem in the way we interact with life, and that is that it seems that we need our narratives to be binary . &ldquo;There is a good boy and a bad boy, the strong and the weak, the loser and the winner. It's in the way information is presented to us, how our politics and relationships are played out, how our world is governed, and also how most of our pop songs are written: the cheaters are evil, the protagonist is right... (white or black). But we know that all our experiences of life and personality do not follow this dichotomy, at least not if we look at ourselves with humanity," says the interpreter.
Her most recent album ( Laurel Hell , 2022 ) stems from her need for stories and songs that express a different dynamic .

<blockquote>« I needed to know how sometimes I&#39;m the bad guy, or sometimes you make bad decisions, but I understand why. I needed love songs about real relationships that aren&#39;t power struggles to win or lose . Above all, I needed songs that could help me forgive both others and myself for our shortcomings. As I have always done, I wrote what I needed to hear » .</blockquote>

The Only Heartbreaker is on the surface a song about being the person who always ruins the relationship, the bad guy (designated who gets blamed), and it could just be that. &quot; But I also wanted to represent something sadder below the surface , that maybe the reason you&#39;re always the one making mistakes is because you&#39;re the only one trying .&quot; Through the lyrics of the single we realize that sincerity comes first, then irony. Mitski finds that people are justifiably upset and , finding no outlet for their anger , they turn to the faces they see on their timelines every day (those who inhabit their reality), that&#39;s where they put their anger. In otherness. This causes a vicious cycle from which, in effect, it is possible to get out. Perhaps the solution is to look within , connect with our highest form of being , and stop taking the outside world so seriously . In other words , have fun ... well , we &#39;re just passing through .
