Angela, a singer, model, and activist, has always used her voice to speak up for the voiceless. In her latest track, “Don’t Hurt Me,” she takes a bold step into the emotional landscape of those struggling to escape the chains of an unhappy relationship. This song is more than just a melody; it’s a heartfelt narrative of a young woman’s difficult journey towards freedom and self-discovery. “Don’t Hurt Me” encapsulates the raw emotions of a woman who knows she must leave her lover behind but finds herself trapped by the lingering memories of better days. Angela explains, “This track is about abandonment, that moment when the heroine realizes she needs to leave her lover urgently. But it’s hard because the brain, like the heart, still remembers only the best parts of the relationship.” Her words echo the painful reality faced by many who have been in similar situations, where the past clings to them even as they try to step into a new life.
Angela is no stranger to singing about love and joy, but she doesn’t shy away from the more challenging topics often overlooked in Ukrainian show business. She dives deep into the complexities of relationships, acknowledging that sometimes, what begins as happiness can quickly transform into something darker. “Relationships often go in the wrong direction as we planned,” she says. “The happiness and euphoria of the first months can change dramatically, giving way to jealousy, irritation, manipulation, and even violence.
This track reflects that difficult moment when you know you must leave, but the memories make it so hard.” Angela’s commitment to using her platform for good doesn’t stop at her music. She will be performing “Don’t Hurt Me” live at the NOVA SUMMER FEST charity festival, an event dedicated to raising funds for the Okhmatdyt Children’s Hospital. This hospital, which has been deeply affected by the ongoing war, holds a special place in Angela’s heart. She has been a steadfast supporter of the hospital for many years, and her dedication to helping those in need is unwavering. Through her music, activism, and relentless dedication to her causes, Angela continues to inspire others to find the strength to break free from what holds them back. “Don’t Hurt Me” is not just a song—it’s a rallying cry for anyone who has ever felt trapped in an unhealthy relationship. Angela’s story is one of resilience, courage, and the unwavering belief that everyone deserves a life filled with happiness and peace.
