NERIAH returns with ‘Reason To Hate You’, six new songs plus ‘Gone Girl’, and the viral ‘Good Enough’ that moved fans on tour.
NERIAH unveils ‘Reason To Hate You’, an EP that marks the first steps after the emotional peak of her debut era. The project traces the quiet that follows a breaking point, building from the themes first addressed on her 24 track debut album ‘Cause of Death’. Here, the end becomes a beginning, with songs that face the internal wreckage left by past relationships and move toward self love through intimate vocals and vulnerable ballads.
The tracklist brings together six new songs alongside ‘Gone Girl’. Earlier this year, ‘Gone Girl’ gained significant momentum, surpassing 600K streams, securing more than 46 global editorial playlist placements, and placing NERIAH on the cover of Spotify’s Young & Free. True to form, she continues to craft viral ready hooks while delivering cathartic pop anthems that reclaim her narrative and confidence, with an unfiltered voice guiding every line.
She frames the project’s intention in her own words:
“My debut album, ‘Cause of Death’, was the breaking point. 24 tracks that buried the version of me who stayed too long, loved too hard, and forgot my worth. It was a goodbye to the girl who thought pain was proof of love. A full-circle moment where she finally said, “I’m done letting people treat me like this”. But walking away is only the beginning. The EP picks up in the silence after. When the relationship is over, but the damage lingers. 
This project isn’t about the breakup, it’s about the pieces it left behind. It’s the hard part: looking in the mirror and realizing how much of yourself you lost trying to keep someone else. It’s about confronting the internal wreckage, the ways you turned against yourself, and the long road back to self-love.
It’s about the kind of sadness that lingers after the crying stops. Emotional exhaustion, quiet reflection, and the bittersweet process of healing. It holds tenderness, vulnerability, and nostalgia all at once. You’re not angry anymore, just processing. You’ve been through it, and now you’re sitting with the after-feelings. There’s still love, but it’s softer now – maybe more for yourself than for them. Everything feels like a memory – worn-in, faded, but meaningful.”
Among the EP highlights is ‘Good Enough’, a song that went hyper viral online, receiving 300 UGCs on TikTok within 48 hours of the first teaser and millions of views. It resonated with thousands across Daniel Seavy’s UK & EU tour, where fans in Amsterdam created a heartfelt moment with hand made heart signs that reminded NERIAH she would always be good enough.
