New single ‘Bullying Myself’ from wildly creative LGBTQ+ alt pop artist and influencer Boy Jr.
"Bullying Myself", the single is all about the negative things we tell ourselves. They confide, "This is a song to listen to when you are fed up with how mean you've been treating yourself. I find myself repeating a lot of the same unkind thoughts when I'm going through something, but if anyone ever said these things to me or a friend, I'd be pissed! So instead of letting it rot on the inside, I'm airing it out and releasing it outside."
"Bullying Myself" is off of their upcoming full length DIY album, I Love Getting Dumped. Boy Jr. is known for creating comical yet poignant narratives packaged in experimental, expansive and charming indie pop-rock. The artist has millions of streams and a massive dedicated social media fanbase.

Boy Jr. is the songwriting/production project of Ariel Allen-Lubman (they/them). Allen-Lubman has established a consistently viral internet presence through original music that is both catchy and creative, while staying true and personal. While Boy Jr.’s charming, energetic indie pop-rock flourishes from Allen-Lubman’s academic music production background, the immense genre versatility is the backbone of the project.
Through an entirely DIY ethos, Allen-Lubman’s career is just about to fully blossom. Through a combination of genuine musical talent, and high energy, oddball personality, Boy Jr. has attracted a variety of followers, from music lovers to critics to creators. As they gear up to promote their upcoming full length DIY album, I Love Getting Dumped, Allen-Lubman continues to use their platform to explore expression in artistry, gender, and influencership. Leading single "I Hope You Feel Terrible" is an honest and relatable narrative of wanting to confront the one who did you wrong. Boy Jr. confides, "You know how people will tell you to write a letter you'll never send when you're upset with someone? "I Hope You Feel Terrible" is like the letter I wasn't supposed to send. It is for everyone who wishes they could have a romcom-like confrontation with someone who hurt them and tell them exactly how they really feel, with the perfect closing one liner and everything." Second single "Bullying Myself" is all about those negative things we tell ourselves. Boy Jr. confides, "I find myself repeating a lot of the same unkind thoughts when I'm going through something, but if anyone ever said these things to me or a friend, I'd be pissed! So instead of letting it rot on the inside, I'm airing it out and releasing it outside."
