After breaking through the mainstream pop market with the infectious anthem ‘Don’t Call Me Up’ and her fiery collaborations ‘Ring Ring’ with Jax Jones and ‘Finders Keepers’ with Koju Funds, she became the “IT” girl that everyone wanted…

SINGLE REVIEW: Ariana Grande feat. Social House – Boyfriend
Ariana Grande doesn’t stop working and that’s a fact. In-between releasing two albums in the space of 6 months as well as kicking off a world tour and headlining some huge music festivals, Grande has made herself a force to be reckoned with. Adding a new song to that growing list, Grande teams up with…
SINGLE REVIEW: LAUV feat. Anne Marie – Fuck I’m Lonely
13 Reasons Why should’ve been stopped after it’s shocking season one finale, but for some reason it’s still going. And with a third season about to premiere on Netflix, you can’t help but question if anyone even cares anymore? But whether or not people actually care about the show anymore is irrelevant because the track…
SINGLE REVIEW: Tove Lo feat. ALMA – Bad As The Boys
Tove Lo has always been about pushing the boundaries. Whether it was lyrically by showing deep vulnerability in her mainstream pop songs or by being unapologetically provocative in her art-house inspired short films, she successfully did it.

SINGLE REVIEW: Natasha Bedingfield – Kick It
Now, this is a comeback everyone should be talking about. Not only were ‘These Words’, ‘Unwritten’ and ‘Pocketful Of Sunshine’ anthems in their own right, they’ve also stood the test of time with them still being played on radio and playlisted in movies and TV shows a-like. It’s been nine years in-between albums…

Sometimes you need to be reminded to not give up, to keep going even though everything else around is telling you to stop. We all need the extra motivation to find that inner strength within us and LPX is embracing that by creating an anthem that is all about encouraging the underdogs. ‘Global Warming’ is…
SINGLE REVIEW: GRYFFIN feat. Carly Rae Jepsen – OMG
I just assume every Carly Rae Jepsen song is going to be a hit, and when it’s not I get really disappointed. And sometimes I even take it personally because I feel like she can do more and she is instead holding back on us. Maybe the world isn’t ready for the pop brilliance she…
