Babebee & blissfully - Shelter (2026)

♡ my self-produced & independently released album, Shelter, is out now ♡ art is funny in the way where when you don’t force it, it calls to you to create it. i fell into a deep depression during the winter and i wasn’t creatively fueled in any way. (i actually quit smoking and even though that’s an achievement, i felt like my life was at a standstill.) & then, one day we decided to go to the local animal shelter and on that same day we started fostering two puppies. the lack of sleep and sudden busyness of taking care of puppies drove me to escape into music and subconsciously i started working on this album & coincidentally i named it shelter… eventually fostering turned into adopting my forever dog, Milo, which one of the songs off the album is about ｡⋆｡˚ ʚïɞ ˚｡⋆｡ shelter is a word that can mean a place with a roof and four walls or an act of hiding or the feeling of safety or even forced isolation… for me the word “shelter” metamorphosed from no longer being about living in the past of someone else’s controlling narrative [that caused self-isolation] to it being about finding safety within & taking care of myself which go hand in hand with taking care of others; i’m still constantly teaching myself how to. all the horrible things happening in this world can make us want to disappear into a place in our minds or the screens in front of our faces but i do think it’s important to create shelter for others just like we would want for ourselves. so that’s why i ask, where do you seek shelter and how do you create shelter?
