I had Lorde’s Melodrama album on repeat all summer while I was scanning microfilm in the basement of the Yale Library, and this song is a remix of a song from that album (now featuring Khalid, Post Malone, and SZA).
Since November, much of my hope has been brought to me by young people who are full of energy and fight. I’ve found myself listening to young artists who bring that energy to me musically: Lorde, Khalid (who, like me, is a proud El Pasoan!), Tash Sultana, Harry Styles, and Noname, for example. With its featured artists of Khalid, Post Malone, and SZA, this remixed Lorde song is a superforce of that youthful fire that’s been so valuable to me lately. Enjoy!
