Brooke Candy Can Be Your Mistress on 'Flip Phone'
Produced by PAPER (in collaboration with Gentle Monster) |
09 September
An icon of the underground music, fashion and queer art worlds, Brooke Candy is a creative force unlike any other. Having spent the last three years working on her visual art and tattooing, the sex positive pop idol, who's previously collaborated with the likes of Charli XCX, Bree Runway, Ashnikko and Rico Nasty, is gearing up to embark on her next musical era. Today, she kicks things off with her brand new solo single "Flip Phone," featuring a music video, produced by PAPER in collaboration with Gentle Monster.
Adding a raunchy twist to Y2K nostalgia in a way that only Candy knows how, the electro-charged club banger juxtaposes pop convention with innuendo and sexually charged lyrics. "Flip Phone" turns listeners on their heads with innocent Britney Spears-esque hooks ("Oh, oh, you can call me on your flip phone"), giving way to suggestive teases ("I could be your mistress") that's all punctuated by a punchy kick drum and subwoofer shaking bass.
