We are kicking the weekend off with an exciting UK newcomer who’s style of alt-pop has already piqued the interest of several noted tastemakers like Wonderland, Clash and Notion magazines.
While ‘Boyfriend Of The Year’ is Bellah Mae’s first official release, the track has already gained considerable traction through TikTok. Elaborating further on the creation of the song, Mae explains:
‘I’d had the opening line of the chorus in my notes app for a few months, but I didn’t know which angle I wanted to take the song. Josh [Breaks, collaborator] and I started trying out ideas and, in an hour, we had written the song. It was one of those examples where it just writes itself.”
With more than 100k streams on Spotify alone in only a matter of days, it’s safe to say that Mae is one UK artist to watch in 2023.
