THIS IS IT. Can you hear me screaming? If you can't there is something wrong with your hearing because I am too hyped right now. For real. What a time to be alive. I don't quite know what I was expecting from the fourth and final (proper, we'll pretend the 'Intro' isn't a thing) track from Chloe Latimer's debut EP, but I was not in a million years (well... I mean... not on this EP) expecting this absolute pop banger. Where the fuck has this song been hiding and why have we not heard it until now? 'Teenage Craze' is a certified 5A YAAAAAS.
Imagine a song that Popjustice would endorse to the moon and back and that's what you get and more with 'Teenage Craze'. A really feel good pop song written and performed by a Scottish teenager with an immense amount of talent and promise. The style here is almost reminiscent of what we've heard recently from Scandi popstars like Tove Lo, Tove Stryke and Zara Larsson but then the almost "spoken word" section could be straight out of a Charli XCX track. And it's important as a reader of this post that you don't think these are throw-away comparisons, they're an attempt at me trying to put into words how huge this really is. Also, as someone without an accent (a "London accent" isn't an accent and doesn't exist, it's not a thing, I don't have an accent) it's always fun to hear twangs of other people's accents in their songs, and there's a fair amount of that in 'Teenage Craze'. All in all, this song is so fun and I sincerely hope that there's more of this kind of vibe to come from future Kloe releases because it's pure unadulterated gold.
Kloe's Teenage Craze EP is released this Friday, 5th February. You should probably buy/stream it.
Awesome, yes I can hear your screaming :)
