Ari — Dreamville

Washington D.C. native and recent Dreamville/Interscope signee, Ari Lennox, released her highly anticipated EP, PHO.

“Sometimes women are put in this box where we’re only supposed to talk about certain things,” the 25-year-old singer-songwriter explains. “I want to be braver and riskier. I think people want to hear that kind of honesty and frankness.”

Inspired by some of the greatest female vocalists of all time: Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Minnie Riperton and Whitney Houston, Lennox modestly describes her own voice as “vulnerable and soulful; imperfect but pretty.”

Ari Lennox for Broadly

Ari answers quick-fire questions about her upcoming debut album, favorite throwback songs, and food vices.

Do you have any pets? Yes, my baby, Galactus. He’s an Akita and he pisses all over the god damn floor. He’s an American Akita but they’re originally bred from Japan, they were bred to attack bears. He’s fuzzy and bushy.

Ari Lennox Talks D.C., New Music, Mental Health, J. Cole

Ari sat down with Billboard to speak about her love for her hometown D.C., signing to Dreamville, new music and much more.

This has all been part of the D.C. songstress’ ongoing back-and-forth development with mental health and figuring out how to stay afloat as a budding artist — something she says she maintains through a mix of therapy, puppies and J. Cole’s wisdom. We spoke to the wildly talented soul star ahead of her EP and album — both due out “before winter” — about why Los Angeles is inferior to D.C., how she maintains happiness, and what it’s like having J. Cole as a mentor.
