A metaphor is a great figure of speech, but sometimes, a direct approach can be just as good. Brooklyn-native Chloe Lilac didn’t have room for subtlety when she wrote “Douchebag,” her latest single and the title track from her sophomore EP. It’s not hard to guess what the track is about, but I bet Chloe felt cathartic relief when she wrote it. Melodically, it is a fun alt-pop track with a catchy chorus and a nice melody. If I had to summarize this tune in a few words, I’d simply say that it is a pop song with an attitude.
At just 18 years old, Chloe is barely getting started, yet it is obvious that she has a knack for writing hook-ridden songs. After growing up listening to the likes of Bowie and Joan Jett, she has the right influences for creating interesting music. If you like radio-friendly songs, then you’re in for a treat. Enjoy “Douchebag” below and have fun this weekend!
