Theme[]
On Unlikeable, Ashnikko marks the beginning of her solo career. This record follows the collaborative EP Sass Pancakes with London-based producer Raf Riley and it centers around Ashnikko's unconventional and un-ladylike demeanor. She continues to explore themes of female empowerment and owning your own body.
The concept of the EP was revealed in an interview with the website "Audiblwav":[1]
“ | Unlikeable is basically me finally coming into my own and coming to terms with the fact that I can’t please everyone. I’m nasty, I’m sexual, I’m flawed, I’m tumultuous, I’m hairy as fuck, I’m never ever going please everyone. I would rather be “unlikeable” than nice and well behaved. I’ve really fallen in love with myself this year. It’s so much fun. [...] | ” |
