With her debut album "I'm Only F**king Myself (The Basic B*tch Edition)," Lola Young serves up a deliciously irreverent mix of swagger and vulnerability that sets her apart from the run-of-the-mill pop starlets.
From the opening track "Intro (Basic B*tch Anthem)" to the closing ballad "Goodbye, Basic B*tches," Young showcases her razor-sharp wit and killer vocals.
The production is slick and polished, but never at the expense of Young's raw, unapologetic lyrics.
Songs like "Basic B*tch Blues" and "F**kboi Funk" are infectious earworms that will have you singing along in no time.
Young's no-holds-barred approach to exploring themes of love, lust, and self-love is both refreshing and empowering.
However, the album does have its missteps.
Tracks like "Basic B*tch Ballad" feel a bit derivative and generic, lacking the punch and personality that define the rest of the album.
Overall, "I'm Only F**king Myself (The Basic B*tch Edition)" is a triumph for Lola Young, showcasing her as a force to be reckoned with in the pop music landscape.
It's fun, sassy, and unapologetically feminist - a must-listen for anyone tired of the same old mainstream pop drivel.
Cheers to Lola Young for reminding us that it's okay to be a basic b*tch, as long as you're f**king yourself.
