Artist Close- Up: Girli Is FREAKIN DERANGED!!!!! …. And you might just love it!
Girli is deranged, loud, and aggressively in your face. That may sound like a contrast to pop music, but that is exactly what she is going for. She is not someone that wants to look, sound, or feel like anyone else nor is she what many define as “standard, bubblegum” pop. Her brilliance lies in her insanity, and her genius is revealed through her difference.
So You Think You Can F**k With Me Do Ya
When you think of pop, you think of candy. Yet, Girli is like a candy with a razor blade center. As you try to sift through the wild sugar rush you have just heard and seen, you let yourself settle into the freshness of her sound. She is an artist that wants to create her own path and that should be admired, especially because she is trying to bring rebellion to a pop world known for its “perfect” behavior.
Girli’s image and sound is like a hit to the face. As you sift through the loudness of her look and music, you see an artist with a worthy message and important mission: do not judge a book by its cover. Craziness is her cover for a deeper heart and soul that, when actually listened to, can make a song seem like a charming chapter. Her new song “Girls Get Angry Too” is openly thematic through its title, and one that, if you allow yourself to absorb it weirdness, will definitely be enjoyed.
Being the fiercest new talent to emerge from the UK this year, London’s newest rising star-come-hell raiser GIRLI contributed a very special guest appearance on long time friend Oscar’s single ‘Breaking My Phone’, alongside news that she will bring her imitable live show on the road with Oscar as the main support for his autumn tour. With her brash, take no prisoners attitude she imbues the track with a unique swagger, her pop rap flow creating an exciting, tangible friction when set against Oscar’s idiosyncratic baritone. It’s a brilliant and totally unexpected twist on the single, and one that lends it whole new dimension entirely.
It is intriguing to hear pop with a punk edge and see a woman blatantly aiming to be an outcast in an industry that promotes “popular girls”. Ironically, it is her focus on alienation that is making her a rising star in her home country: THE UK. Click Here For More Information on Girli.
