After becoming a household name thanks to her breakout role in Mindy Kaling's "The Sex Lives of College Girls," Reneé Rapp proved she's also a talented musician. Rapp first announced her debut album and its lead single "Snow Angel" on June 6. "Walking through my old neighborhood a couple blocks from the mean girls theater and all I ever wanted to do was put out an album I was proud of," Rapp captioned a photo of herself posing next to posters of the album cover on the sidewalk a few days later. "I'm seeing all of your sweet posts and tweets. love you down."
Rapp explained in a previous tweet that the album was influenced by a "traumatic experience" from her past and writing the album took an emotional toll on her. "My album was done. I had all the songs. I even had the lead single picked out, too," she said of the album's pushed-back release date. "I spent 4 months writing nearly every day. I spit out all my concepts, all my ballads, my f*ck you's and my I love you's. We rented out studios in Jersey while I was filming 'Mean Girls' and cried in damn near every studio in the valley. Fast forward May 8th probably 11pm. Alexander and I were supposed to be finishing vocals but we decided to try a hail mary."
"Snow Angel" also features the tracks "Talk Too Much," "Poison Poison," "Pretty Girls" and "23."
