“It’s a journey of self-exploration and being confident enough to share yourself with the world.'- BabyAriel on her new song 'Wildside'

“It’s a journey of self-exploration and being confident enough to share yourself with the world,” the former Musical.ly standout says of her just-released single.

“The song and video tell the story of two kids -- and me in general -- who are learning to accept themselves for who they are,” the singer tells Billboard. The video follows Baby Ariel and a boy: both look somber and defeated, until they begin to physically transform. The boy goes from wearing a dull suit and tie into a stunning gown, and Ariel trades her hot pink dress and matching lipstick for darker makeup and an edgier look.

Self-love is a topic that Baby Ariel, a former Musical.ly breakthrough who has mostly sung about loving others , has been wanting to explore for the last few years. “Because I started social media at a young age, I’ve always felt this pressure to be a certain way, and talk about certain things,” she explains. “I’ve gotten to the point where if I continue letting other people’s opinions affect me, I’m going to explode.

“I’ve been obsessed with movies my entire life, and one of my big goals is to direct movies one day,” she says. “To be able to get in there and create characters and write a story... to color the video, choose how I want every little thing to look, the way I want the camera to be set up, the way I want the world to look... It was just a dream for me.”
