Corrupt
This playlist captures the intense, tumultuous romance and complex emotional layers of "Corrupt" by Penelope Douglas. The instrumental tracks reflect the tension, longing, and dark obsession between Erika and Michael, while the vocal songs explore themes of desire, fear, and power dynamics in their relationship. The mix of indie rock, ambient, and alternative R&B mirrors the contemporary university setting and the push-pull dynamic of the characters.
