Esthy - 'bad habit'

LA artist Esthy shares her latest single ‘bad habit’, a polished pop release that explores the difficulty of leaving behind a relationship that continues to cause pain.

Written, produced and mixed by Esthy herself, the track combines sleek production with intimate vocals and direct, confessional songwriting. Its melodic pop framework gives the song an immediate appeal, while the lyrics focus on the familiar cycle of returning to someone despite knowing the pattern is unhealthy.

But instead of presenting heartbreak in simple terms, ‘bad habit’ captures the contradiction of wanting distance while still being drawn back in. The song reflects the frustration, longing and self-awareness that often come with emotional attachment, especially when the decision to walk away feels clearer in theory than in reality.

With its late-night atmosphere and carefully crafted arrangement, the single continues to develop Esthy’s identity as a multifaceted pop artist. ‘bad habit’ is a relatable and assured release, turning personal experience into a track that feels both accessible and emotionally grounded.
