As a creative director and emerging music video director, Aleaha Reneé is drawn to the emotional afterlife of songs—especially the ones tucked quietly into an artist’s backlist, but just as often the ones still unfolding in real time.

​

In an industry constantly chasing what’s next, Aleaha is interested in what lingers. She believes certain songs don’t reveal themselves all at once; their meaning deepens with time, experience, and emotional context. Her work is rooted in that familiar moment when a song you once played casually as a teenager suddenly clicks years later—because you’ve lived more, loved harder, and now the lyrics meet you differently. As someone once said, “If you don’t understand a song yet, just live a little longer. You will.” That truth sits at the center of her creative practice.

​

Ultimately, Aleaha's goal as a director is not just to visualize what a song means, but to create work that invites audiences to recognize themselves inside it—offering a deeper, more resonant way of listening.

​

Through speculative music videos and concept-driven visual storytelling, Aleaha builds intimate, cinematic worlds that explore longing, restraint, fantasy, nostalgia, and emotional mis-timing—often through feminine, interior, and character-driven perspectives. Her work prioritizes feeling over flash, allowing quiet moments, unspoken tension, and lived-in details to carry the narrative.​
