Not quite confirmed for pop yet, but it's tagged as both pop and alt (where it was definitely sent, according to PlayIGA) on igapromotion's SoundCloud, which would indicate an eventual, inevitable pop push. She's signed to Benny Blanco's indie label Friends Keep Secrets and appears to have some sort of distribution/promotion deal with Interscope as well. Co-written by Weaver and Charli XCX; produced by Blanco, Passion Pit's Michael Angelakos, and Cashmere Cat.

This better be a single. They could try Promises and hopefully it smashes then let this one cement her into radio more.

I LOVE this song!!!! Why is this song staying at about #140 on iTunes? This song is a huge smash waiting to happen. I'm surprised it's not moving up on iTunes faster.

I like this but "Stay Low" is the real hit imo. That one will be massive.

The hype is sort of turning me off to it.
It's a good little track, but the combination of music critics ruining their pants over it + all the support from her famous friends is way over the top.
Every single song in the Top 10 at pop is stronger than this, but they're not as "cool" so the hipster blogs won't tell you that.

Forgot to mention this the other day - according to her recent Billboard interview, this is likely to get a radio push early next year.

Heard this multiple times over the past week on Spotify, and I love this! I hope it becomes huge!!!
When she sings the "oh you let me down, I can't take it!" it sounds soooooo similar to someone else, but I don't know who...

This should be a hit - now I don't know if this will happen. BUT I sure do hope it does become a hit because I need this on my radio.
I never heard of this artist. Is there any other Tracks from her?

Is there any other Tracks from her? she has an ep out, which you can play on spotify or her soundcloud (which would be down right now lol). i know on last.fm i saw a couple extra tracks but haven't checked them out. it's a really solid ep though, truth serum level for me.

There was a recent Billboard spotlight on her that intimated the radio push would start after the holidays. It's been listed on PlayIGA for a while (under alt), but no impact date has been given. She's been an interesting one to follow because the hype is almost as much about her emergence as it is about her music. Essentially, this no-name artist pops up with a song that was written/produced with several MAJOR music names, including Cashmere Cat, the guy from Passion Pit, Benny Blanco and Charli XCX. It somehow landed in the inboxes of every major music publication as well. As you can kind of piece together above, it seems that she is backed by a high-profile PR/management team and is on Blanco's imprint, which despite initially appearing like a mom-and-pop shop, is housed with Interscope and obviously has radio backing there as well. So she's not exactly the "Garage Band" artist they wanted you to believe she was, but that doesn't change the fact that the song is pretty damn good (although I don't think it's as good as everyone is saying).
