　　‘Moonchild’, which is split into three sections, is now available in its entirety today (September 10), following the release of three singles: ‘Switchblade’, ‘Selene’ and ‘Lose’.
　　The 88rising artist took to Instagram to release a lengthy statement on the album’s release, chronicling its creation over the course of two years. “This… is two years of unrelenting work. I bent over backwards, almost quit, and lost my mind countless times before this album became the body of work it is today,” she said in the statement.
　　“To my fans reading this: I encourage you to please listen from start to finish, as it was intended. Take away from it what you will. Get back to me when you have it,” she added.
　　While the album does not feature any guest artists, its songwriting credits include contributions from songwriter Jacob Ray and collective Bekon & the Donuts, whom NIKI thanked in her statement. Montreal producer Pomo also contributed.
　　Apart from the album, NIKI has also dropped a brand new visual for ‘Nightcrawlers’. The video features the 21-year-old in a dimly lit garden under a full moon, donning a flower crown. The video has garnered over 50,000 views since its release.
　　The ‘Moonchild’ album comes a year after NIKI’s ‘wanna take this downtown?’ EP. That was the follow-up to her 2018 debut project ‘Zephyr’, an eight-track EP that soon saw the young artist get dubbed “the internet’s favourite R&B princess”.
　　Since the release of ‘Zephyr’, NIKI has become one of the faces of the label 88rising alongside fellow Indonesian artist Rich Brian – who recently released his own ‘1999’ EP – and Joji.
　　Prior to the launch of ‘Zephyr’, which put her on the map, NIKI opened for Taylor Swift at the age of 15 when Swift brought The Red Tour to Jakarta in 2014.
　　迄今为止，在全球已累计获得超过850M流媒体数据的21岁的NIKI, 始终坚持自主创作、录制和制作自己的歌曲，勇敢地打破了作为“流行偶像”的定式。这位出生在雅加达，现居洛杉矶的女孩，正吸引着整个世界的目光，Billboard盛赞她是“冉冉升起的最耀眼的新星之一”。
　　NIKI的个人首张全长专辑《MOONCHILD》，作为一张概念专辑，将带领听众共同经历三个自我探索的月相：新月（纯真、好奇、开端）；半月/月蚀（失去希望、幻灭）；满月（自我发现、力量）。这张专辑的灵感来自于NIKI在音乐上所受到的影响，将不同的音乐风格融入三联曲的音乐结构——R&B，流行，都市，Funk，乡村音乐——从单纯质朴的钢琴歌谣到精心编排的赞美诗。经过整整两年的制作，《MOONCHILD》集合了NIKI以及多位合作者，如制作人/词曲作者Jacob Ray、制作人组合 Bekon & the Donuts (曾为Kendrick Lamar, SZA制作)、蒙特利尔制作人Pomo (曾为Anderson .Paak, Mac Miller制作) 以及Starsmith (曾为Zedd, Kehlani, Ellie Goulding, Lady Gaga制作)。
　　继单曲“Switchblade,” “Selene,” 和 “Lose”在今年早些时候相继发行之后，《MOONCHILD》的故事即将进入终章，最后一个章节的主打曲目“Plot Twist”，是一首总结性的曲目，圆满了整张专辑的循环。在这支单曲之中，NIKI唱出她充实的自我发现之旅。“Plot Twist”就是她自己本身——一种全新的美丽的充满勇气的生活形式。这支单曲是一首献给她所最终成为的自己的情歌，一封写给她终于发现却从未预期过的灵魂的信笺。
