New single ‘All I See’ captures the moment where resistance gives way to acceptance, a shift that came during a turbulent period for the rising pop artist. Written after stepping away from London and confronting anxiety head-on, the track leans into honesty over polish, offering a stripped-back, emotionally direct take on pop songwriting. With continued support from BBC Introducing and Radio 1 behind her, Ronniee is stepping into a new chapter defined less by perfection and more by truth. Below, she talks anxiety, letting go, and why writing from honesty changed everything.
Ronniee, “All I See” feels like a quiet moment of honesty — what was happening in your life when you wrote it, and how did letting yourself “listen to your thoughts” change the way you approach songwriting?
I definitely think this is the most personal and scary song iv'e ever released. I had moved back to Devon for a few months from London as i had gone through a really awful time after being dropped by old music management and was commuting to and from London. I was in a session with my producer Tom and friend Julius and could barely focus from feeling so anxious. As the song wrote it's self i started to feel a weight lifted to be honest, songwriting really is a sort of therapy. Writing from a place of truth and honesty in my opinion creates the best music because your'e not hiding and thats when people can really relate i think.
You’ve described the track as learning to exist with your mental health rather than against it. How did that mindset shape the sound and vulnerability of All I See, and what do you hope listeners take from that message?
Ive always suffered with nerves even as a child! As i grew up in my early twenties they seemed to get worse in certain situations and after reaching out and seeking help i realised i was suffering from severe anxiety. I think there can be a real mindset of 'shame' that comes from seeking help whether thats therapy or medication. At every point i felt 'fine' to stop seeking help, the problem would worsen leading me to feel completely helpless until one day i just had a word with myself and decided it was time to accept that this was something that would probably never go away and that it was something i was going to have to live with. So rather than punishing myself for it iv'e found a really calm place of acceptance and i know how to look after myself now. Thats what the songs about. Living with something that may never go and treating yourself kindly to deal with it . I hope listeners can find piece in the song and think 'do you know what, i'm ok'
After support from BBC Introducing and airplay on BBC Radio 1, how has that recognition impacted your confidence and the way you see your place in the industry?
BBC Introducing have supported me from day one and have really shaped me as an artist. It's amazing to have real music fans cheering you on and being proud of your sound and pushing you forward. BBC Radio one was a BIG moment for me, its been on my dream list for years, having friends messaging me after they heard it was surreal. The industry is tough and there are a lot of hard times but when these amazing moments happen it gives me real security in knowing i'm doing the right thing and most of all that my music is reaching YOU.
From syncs on Love Island to releasing your EP Garden, your music balances emotional depth with accessible pop. How do you strike that balance between personal storytelling and creating something widely relatable?
I think you always have to attack it from a place of truth. Sounds odd but when i write a song i always picture how the video/visuals/artwork will look. I just find myself falling into that world whatever it may be. 'Garden' came out of a dream haha. I woke up and all i could think about was this concept of a 'Garden' i felt like there were a'lot of levels in terms of how i could push my songwriting. I think just always going back to 'why am i writing the song?' keeps my lyrics grounded and the truth at the forefront of what i do no matter how crazy i want the video to be!
“All I See” feels like the start of a new chapter — creatively and personally. What can fans expect next from this era, and how does this release set the tone for what’s coming in 2026?
Do you know what it really is. I think iv'e moved ALOT as an artist. I hold my self accountable on a daily basis and i monitor where i'm at, where i want to go and how i want to be received. Im really working on letting go a bit more and trusting myself, what i think is good somebody else may not, and thats ok! When it goes out its because i want it to not because someone else has told me too. This release marks the end of an amazing but somewhat difficult chapter. I have this years releases lined up and ready to go so fans can expect truth—no filter, no pretending. It’s messy, stylish, a little unhinged, and completely me. Expect storytelling you can feel, fashion you can hear, and honesty that doesn’t ask for permission.
