Gia Ivy captures the ecstasy and collapse of love on dazzling debut album ‘Make it Break it’

Lithuania-born, LA-based pop and R&B artist Gia Ivy makes an unforgettable entrance with her debut album Make it Break it, a shimmering, soul-stirring journey through the dizzying highs and devastating lows of romantic love. Released via DMO Music Group, the 11-track record is an emotional deep dive wrapped in lush production, dreamy textures, and raw vulnerability—a bold statement from an artist stepping fully into her power.

Written and recorded across continents—from the dorm rooms of Berlin to an intense, dream-come-true studio sprint in Los Angeles—Make it Break it is the result of focused ambition and fearless honesty. Gia collaborated with a global team to shape the album during a concentrated three-month period, pouring her experiences and heartache into over 50 songs, eventually curating the most poignant 11.

The album opens with “INTRO”, immediately setting the emotional stakes with the haunting line “Tell me where your thoughts go / When I’m with you I still feel alone.” From there, the project evolves like a relationship itself—groovy and infatuated early on, before plunging into darker, more introspective waters.

At the center is “High”, a standout single that floats on silky synths and layered vocal harmonies, capturing the euphoric suspension of falling for someone—when love feels light, limitless, and untouchable.

Gia’s voice is a guiding light throughout—vulnerable yet commanding, blending the intimacy of R&B with the moody textures of alt-pop. Whether supported by acoustic guitar or bass-heavy beats, her delivery is always intentional, threading every track with emotional resonance.

“This album is about a love that wasn’t meant to last,” Gia explains, and it shows—not just in the lyrics, but in the arc of the sound. The story unfolds with the richness and tragedy of a great indie film: dazzling at first, then unravelling before quietly fading into something bittersweet.

Gia Ivy’s Make it Break it is more than a debut—it’s a declaration. It’s the sound of an artist who’s lived through the heartbreak and come out the other side not just with songs, but with an identity. This is a record for anyone who’s ever loved too hard, hoped too much, and still found beauty in the wreckage.
