Unless you live under a rock, you have been experiencing the pop renaissance that is upon us. We are seeing a rise in artists like Charli XCX, Chappell Roan, Sabrina Carpenter, who are rising to the top and continue to spearhead the music industry.
The girls are coming through with music that has everyone obsessed and talking. Testing the boundaries of pop and experimenting with new sounds, such as Charli XCX’s “Von Dutch” and “Club Classics,” and overall risque lyrics.
Music is currently bringing people together on a whole new level, marking a pinnacle time in the pop scene.
Chappell Roan
Chappell Roan came out with her debut album, Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess in 2023, since the release of her single “Good Luck Babe”, Chappell has absolutely skyrocketed and marked her spot as a pop icon.
The persona Chappell has created (Hannah Montana-esque) through drag and music, has attracted a loyal audience, connecting to all genders, ages, the LGBTQ+ community, and of course the born and raised midwest people.
Chappell Roan’s rise has gotten people excited about pop again, with songs like “Red Wine Supernova,” “Pink Pony Club,” and “Hot To Go.
” Chappell is doing it like no other, with her unique melodies, stage
presence, and other-wordly vocals.
Sabrina Carpenter
I know you all are working late..because of homework, but I’m working late because I’m a singer. Wise words from Sabrina Carpenter.
With the release of her singles, “Espresso,” and “Please Please Please,” Sabrina held the title of the biggest hits, just like that. While “me espresso,” has been stuck in everyone’s head, the new album, Short n’ Sweet was just released.
Already, this album is everywhere, every scroll on tiktok and even entertaining speculated drama concerning Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello.
Carpenter just released her music video, “Taste,” featuring Jenna Ortega. One of Venice High School’s students, Allie Cunningham, made an appearance in this video.
Chappell, Charli, and Sabrina are bringing back pop in a new wave of music that is inspiring and creative; they’re artists who’ve created a brand with themselves, one which resonates with their audiences and aims for longevity.
Not to mention the three are intertwined, spotted at parties together or photographed backstage—Sabrina covering, “Good Luck Babe,” on BBC, to Chappell posting a photo holding a BRAT CD on instagram.
Charli XCX
Arguably the biggest moment in pop culture and music in a hot minute, the neon green album titled, BRAT.
Everyone’s favorite party girl, Charli XCX, brought the most genius marketing to the game for her recent album, coining neon green and the name BRAT truly having an impact like no other.
Charli has earned her title as a “club rat” and (365) party girl, from XCX’s insane production to Boiler Room DJ sets that have you wishing you were there.
We are experiencing a femininomenon in music, reflecting onto society and creating a time of power, acceptance, unity, and individuality.
You can sense the change that is occurring, and we’re witnessing an exciting era that will remain monumental as music and pop stars continue to grow.
