On September 26, 2025, North Carolina based artist Nicole Ash released her newest single, “Villain (In Your Eyes),” which is perfect for listeners who love Avril Lavigne, Paramore, and Green Day. This single is an anthem for those who have experienced a toxic friendship they tried to hold onto for so long, but who know, at the end of the day, that it will never get better. Friendships, in my opinion, can become very tricky because not every friendship you have will be a positive one. “Villain (In Your Eyes)” expresses that in a raw and empowering way to allow listeners to understand that it’s okay to let go and end it. Nicole Ash’s vocals in the single are a cathartic outcry, filled with turmoil of knowing that not all friendships can be saved.
