On September 8, 2023, Annika Socolofsky and ~Nois release "I Tell You Me," an album celebrating q***r joy and defiance on Carrier Records. Described as “grotesquely gorgeous” (Chicago Tribune), Socolofsky’s original 3-song cycle riffs on the old nursery rhyme “sugar, spice, and everything nice, that’s what little girls are made of,” questioning gender roles and rejoicing in the beauty of q***r self-expression and empowerment. The album turns this old nursery rhyme on its head, asking “what are little girls made of?” and channels feminist rage and defiance at the double standards placed on women and q***rs in society. In the spirit of individual expression, the song cycle is followed by remixes of each song in the cycle, each created by a different q***r artist: Phong Tran, Darian Donovan Thomas, and No Plexus and celebrating their unique voices through their own performances, composing, and production.
