Just in time for the snowy holidays, LØLØ has shared her delicate and melancholy new track, “*snow in berlin*.” Capturing the listeners in a flurry of tender acoustic guitar strums, LØLØ’s typically fiery delivery undergoes a subtle transformation, as her vocals melt into an airy whisper and she croons, “I can’t quite recall the first night that we met/But I remember the night that you took my breath/You slurred your words, but I liked what you said/You kissed me and I could taste danger ahead.” The track’s opening verse serves as a captivating prologue to a profound narrative exploring the… Read more »

Complementing the pulsating energy of the track is a satirical music video, cleverly parodying directors and harkening back to the nostalgic vigor of VH1 Classic programming.

My mom has always been my go-to when it comes to women in music, exposing me to an endless slew of amazing female artists as I grew up. The conversation started as we praised Taylor Swift for the… Read more »
