Nanette Responds With Deep Emotion As Hermosa Praises “Painfully Happy” Album. Blxckie’s partner, Hermosa, has shared a deeply emotional tribute to Nanette’s debut album Painfully Happy, describing it as one of the most authentic and powerful projects she’s ever experienced.
In her post, Hermosa revealed just how much the music has touched her on a personal level. “Nanette’s Painfully Happy feels as if it was written just for me. It’s not simply an album; it’s a journey that takes me through love, heartbreak, womanhood, friendship, and grief in the most authentic way,” she wrote.
Hermosa went on to explain the rollercoaster of emotions the album evokes. From wanting to “hit up my crush” to cursing at her ex or grieving her late grandmother, she said Nanette’s music manages to hold space for every stage of emotion. “There isn’t a single song I have skipped; it’s one of the best projects I’ve heard yet… I’ve played it about 100 times since its release, and I’m still hooked.”

She recalled first discovering Nanette through her early singing videos on social media. “I thought, wow, this girl has got such a beautiful voice. It’s incredible to see her now, as a grounded, beautiful and remarkable artist. She’s not just on her way to superstardom; she’s already showing that she’s here to stay.”
Nanette was visibly moved by Hermosa’s words, responding with an emotional message: “You’re making me cry 😢 thank you so much for posting this mntase 🙏🏼❤️ and I’m so honoured that you’ve connected with it on such a deep level. I honestly wanted to leave my all in this album. If I never make another song, I’m okay with leaving it this way.”
The singer further reflected on the themes that shaped Painfully Happy. “Grief and womanhood have changed me so so much. And it’s been an honor to share that with you and watch you grow and evolve in womanhood and motherhood too 🥹❤️ your support means worlds to me, Hermosa. I love you so so much, friend.”
