Born in Bulgaria but now based in New York, the singer-songwriter creates her own lane and sound, fusing the likes of electro, soul, and pop. Beyond her music, she’s a model and activist extremely passionate about women’s rights, LGBTQ+ rights, female empowerment, and body positivity.
Today, she returns with her newest single titled “Salty,” released in perfect timing for Women’s History Month. Following the success of her previous hits “[All The Guys,](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0BjWaL7Z8VQ)” “[Candy Coated](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQb1esr0djU&feature=youtu.be),” “[Life Of The Party](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uynqBm_p8kw),” and “[On My Way](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_QIxmXBrSQ&feature=emb_title),” “[Salty](https://youtu.be/MFDSRR0KOwA)” serves as Ruth’s fifth single dedicated to women and the LGBTQ+ community. This isn’t just a celebration of women, but equality and inclusion for all.
Ruth speaks on the new single, “To me, ‘Salty’ is a personal declaration of independence. It’s my way of saying ‘I am enough.’ It's about self-love and confidence, which as women we need to embrace more.”
“Salty” is produced by acclaimed producer Gueorgui Linev , who’s worked with everyone from Thundercat to Moses Sumney, toured with Arctic Monkeys, and composed for HBO’s Game of Thrones. Crooning her lusty lyrics over an intoxicating beat, Ruth continues to defy all barriers in music genres, reminding audiences all around the world that music is universal.
