Come on, let’s go inside Lexi Lemonade world! Her first EP entitled “Flavors” sounds like a playlist of emotions – love, lost loves, and discovering self. This is especially so since, as she puts it, “Lexi’s from New Jersey, and her sound is this great melange of sounds; everything from cool to smooth, groovy beats to straight up chill R & B vibes.”
In fact, Lexy began singing songs, and creating demos from home during her college days. In 2019 she released her first single, “drip” and it is safe to say that there has been no turning back ever since. For instance, her hits on ‘How Could I’ and ‘Flavours’ epitomize her growth and maturity as an artist.
It’s hard to say anything about ‘flavors,’ but it is somehow like a love warning. Sweet indeed but with a warning telling you to take care! For that, Lexi’s music is very colorful and depicts different but beautiful representations of true love.
She thinks visually and when she does music, it is just painting a vivid fairy tale in her head. This has all been a learning experience for Lexi. She adores artists such as Rihanna, appreciates fashion and photography, and values her family.
In a recent interview with Lexi Lemonade, she shared what inspires her daily life, including the musical vibe of her family. By practicing a lot, she learned how to sing and write music and she still learns something new every single day.
Gratitude remains at the core of Lexi’s message to her fans. She is so grateful to her, and she has decided to continue this musical journey together with all these people.
Lexi is looking forward to wrapping up her current project. She is very willing to work with other artists, and she still desires to mature further as an artist. Her music is how Lexi Lemonade speaks, and she is prepared to continue revealing these ‘Flavors’ to the world.

What is your stage name
Lexi Lemonade
Is there a story behind your stage name?
lt started as a nickname when I was in high school! I had a slight obsession with the drink Simply Lemonade to the point people started referring me to Lexi Lemonade. It stuck and i decided to use it for my artist name
Where do you find inspiration?
I find inspiration in every day life and the beauty in it. I know it sounds cliche but sometimes i’ll just be doing something and the music comes to me 🤣. I tend to reflect about experiences that ive had in my life or something im into in the moment and that could be sort of inspiration for my music
What was the role of music in the early years of your life?
It was my escape from reality lol especially if i was bored. Music always took me to another place in my mind almost like an alternate universe. Also in my school years I played in the marching band, the Alto Saxophone and was apart of my school(s) choir for about 7 years. Music was always in my life from a very young age.
Are you from a musical or artistic family?
My Dad I would say is the start of it all! Hes so naturally gifted. Hes always singing and self taught musician. He taught himself how to play drums, guitar, and piano. From the day I could
Talk he would teach me how to sing and we would do karaoke together. As I got older my brothers got into music. One is still currently doing music in such an innovative way and i love it. You can find him @RoofsbyDon on Spotify and instagram!
Who inspired you to be a part of the music industry?
My dear friend from my early college years . We were actually co-workers but had such similar interests. Honestly i think everyone was so artistic in their own way it really inspired me to follow my dream and just go for it no matter what anyone thought. It was something that i feel like i
loved and dreamed of secretly because im naturally shy
How did you learn to sing/write/to play?
Really just through practice and from what i learned in school and with my dad. I feel like im still learning everyday. Theres always room
For growth.
What was the first concert that you ever went to and who did you see perform?
My first concert ever was an Alicia Keys concert . I loved it, i had to be in like elementary school or something still lol but i remember my mom buying me my first trench with some boots. I really felt like a star that night 🤣
How could you describe your music?
I feel like it sounds ethereal and airy but also a little off center. Its unique and I feel like its what makes me, me! It really just takes you into another world.
Describe your creative process.
Im a visual person when im creating so i go off the feeling whatever im making gives and i envision the colors and the story behind whatever it is im making. I can guarantee i already see a whole movie in my mind when im done. I like to make a demo production first that i write to and then i take it to the studio where the magic happens
What musician do you admire most and why?
I have more than one but I would have to say most recent is Rihanna before she went on her break 🤣 I went to her LOUD concert and was just in awe! I loved her energy on the stage it really felt like we were literally just partying together. She has a great way of showing emotion in her songs and also I feel like her personality shines through. Nothing about it ever feels inauthentic and I admire how shes able to incorporate the fashion, and her business endeavors in her career.
Did your style evolve since the beginning of your career?
I am still quite early in my career but I am absolutely sure it will evolve. I do embrace change, I tend to get bored quite easily so I enjoy switching things up
Who do you see as your main competitor?
To be quite honest, it is myself. I just want to continue to get better and hope that my art grows and gets better with time.
What are your interests outside of music?
Fashion Photography, fashion, and spending time with my kids and family being able to enjoy life to the fullest
If it wasn’t a music career, what would you be doing?
What I’m doing now 🤣 I do have a day job and also a business @SABAAElite that i run with my spouse. i haven’t gotten to the point where im able to fund my life solely off music but i welcome the day it comes
What is the biggest problem you have encountered in the journey of music?
I guess for right now its just finding my tribe.
But im sure that will come with time.
If you could change one thing in the music industry, what would it be?
I think on a mainstream level just more innovation. I feel like things kind of felt like a standstill for a while everyone following trends what is hot and somewhere along the way some people just lost the art of art 🤣 if you think of all the icons who came before us what made them so iconic was the ability for them to stand out and really just create a lane of their own.
Why did you choose this as the title of this project?
Flavors. Its a play on my name Lexi Lemonade! Its an analogy for the different sides of me. I am not a one dimensional person. I am a human with different sides to me and different interests. I think its just about embracing all parts of yourself and knowing its ok to not be the same all the time. As time changes we grow and change with it too.
What are your plans for the coming months?
I really will be focusing on completing my next project! Im excited to get the ball rolling and really just to build up my catalogue. Ive already written a couple pieces so im excited to hear it manifest in the studio
Do you have any artistic collaboration plans
I am open to collaboration!
What message would you like to give to your fans?
Thank you so much for supporting me and accepting me for who i am 🙂 its really tough decision to put myself out there but really with all the love it is so rewarding. I am excited to continue this journey with you!
