After last year's massive banger "Manners", Icona Pop have Summer's first lockdown party anthem in "I Love It". These chicks just want to have a good time, and frankly don't give a shit if they crash their car into a bridge. English starlet Charli XCX takes writing credits in this. Sadly, this has no relations to the Young Jeezy classic of the same name. Icona Pop - "I Love It"

After announcing that she was going to release an EP a few months back, rising London musician Charli XCX unleashed a flood of aniticipation for what could only be a fantastic debut. Unfortunately, though, the details of the release may be a bit disappointing. The debut EP from the unique pop singer, now confirmed to be titled You're The One , will only include one brand new song, titled "You're The One," meaning it is more or less a single. Either way, the EP will include the titular track along with previously heard track "Nuclear [...]

Rising London pop singer Charli XCX premiered the title track from her upcoming debut EP You're The One in a session with Invisible Children in Austin during SXSW. This is the first time we're hearing the song and in its stripped down acoustic form, it's beautiful. That undeniably smart pop songwriting is on full display here and we can only imagine how great it must sound when it's coupled with Charli's signature goth pop production.

We're a bit disappointed that Charli XCX ' exciting debut EP we've been hearing about is merely a glorified single featuring only one new song (the title cut) and the familiar "Nuclear Seasons."

Around this time, Charli will be on tour with Coldplay , having wrapped up her tour with Santigold the [...]

Popping Up is our recurring look at new artists making noise on the music landscape. Because, hey — Madonna and Britney were once unknown, too. Just two years ago, Charlotte Aitchison, aka Charli XCX , was the youngest of a burgeoning number of young female dance music singers, cracking the shell of the US music scene. The youngest of these trendsetters — then just 17 years old — Aitchison was making music described as having "pouty raps, fuzzy bass lines." Well, a lot can change in two [...]
