Slap is out now!
Sibling duo Caroline & Claude have dropped their new single, Slap. To celebrate the release, the duo have shared with MILKY five songs they think pack a punch!
“Slap is about the hard-hitting truths. You need to hear them, but boy does it hurt. Slap explores the idea that everything in your life is going downhill, and it's just one slap after the other... and the words people say to you, whether it’s true or not, HURT!! I guess Miss Lizzo wasn't lying when she sang Truth Hurts..." Caroline & Claude share.
"From the beginning, Slap was one of those songs where whilst writing it we got giddy and couldn’t contain the pure energy in the room. Writing the track in Auckland with Josh Fountain set the tone of the song to already be a #BANGER. There was pure inspiration and a pre-existing excitement in the room... We all were feeling this song hard in the studio.”
1. THE SWEET ESCAPE - GWEN STEFANI, AKON
The song starts with an iconic guitar riff; you’re been drawn in. Then BAM!!! you’re hit with a ‘wooohoo, yeeehoo’… one of the most iconic sounds in the history of humankind. Verse one you’re shaking your ass, then the chorus hits and you’re violently crying COZ YOU COULD BE THEIR FAVOURITE GIRL TOO (forever and perfectly together)… IT WOULD BE SO SWEET!!! The synth bells that descend in the chorus remind me of the live action cat in the hat; don’t ask how or why becoz I don’t know, but it’s a good thing… a very good thing.
2. PLAN B - MEGAN THEE STALLION
She devoured this song. that’s all.
3. A LITTLE BIT ALEXIS - ANNIE MURPHY (AKA ALEXIS ROSE)
This one’s for the girls, gays and theys. It’s giving emma watson in bling ring. When she sings “hide your diamonds, hide your exes… I’m a little bit Alexis”, she’s alluding to the fact that she is hot.
4. BELLAS FINALS: PRICE TAG/ DON’T YOU (FORGET ABOUT ME)/GIVE ME EVERYTHING/JUST THE WAY/ PARTY IN THE U.S.A./TURN THE BEAT AROUND - THE BARDEN BELLAS
Now this is exactly the type of performance you would expect to see at the international championship of collegiate acapella, am I right, Gail?
5. UN MILLÓN - THE MARÍAS
MY HIPS ARE MOVINGGGG DONT GET IN MY WAYYYY!!! This song is so fun to dance to and it packs such a punch #slay !!! The Marías are one of my favourite artists ever and this song is such a bop! I don’t know Spanish at all to any extent but that doesn’t stop me from singing along.
Slap is out now!
