🎶 Listening to GUTS by Olivia Rodrigo.
Everyone’s favourite childhood High School Musical character to present-day singing a wildly popular song about getting a driving license artist, Olivia Rodrigo, is back with a new(ish) album in 2023.
It’s at least as good as her first one. There’s a variety of styles on show, plenty of pop-punk , with some big piano ballads and a smattering of rap. Much of it riddled with the self-doubt, insecurity, anger and clever disses about idiot men that seem to be part of a lot of the newer music I chance upon these days. Sign of the times I guess.
Her first album was also pretty great but everyone’s already heard it so you probably already knew that.
