Wildcard (week 47):
mazie – Girls Just Wanna Have Sex
Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, Cyndi Lauper sung in the 1980s. But these are the 2020s and girls’ needs appear to have shifted somewhat… Enter mazie’s new single Girls Just Wanna Have Sex. It’s a punky pop song full of attitude, that shares mazie’s feelings on women’s sexual liberation. A banger in more ways than one!
Also check the colourful video, which is just as hectic as the song itself.
23-year-old Baltimore native mazie’s real name is Grace Christian. She spent most of her childhood studying classical and jazz vocals. By the time she hit her teenage years, she was writing her own music. She recording it with her neighbour, Elie Rizk, who was teaching himself to engineer and produce in his basement studio. After years of experimenting and collaborating, they immediately scored big with her 2020 debut single No Friends.
Mazie’s new single Girls Just Wanna Have Sex is this week’s new Carte Blanche Music Wildcard. That means it’ll feature prominently at the top of the blog for a whole week.

Lølø – Junkie
Born and raised in Toronto, Canadian singer-songwriter Lauren Mandel goes by the stage name of Lølø. She gained popularity both online and offline, reimagining big pop hits on TikTok, releasing her own singles on Spotify and playing captivating gigs on stage. Her relatable songs, written about her love life as a form of therapy, landed her a lot of fans. 2021 was a big year for Lølø, signing both a publishing contract and a record deal. She also put out her first EP Overkill.
Following Debbie Downer (feat. Maggie Lindemann), Junkie is her second single of the year. It’s an Avril Lavigne-like punk-rock song, which combines witty lyrics with infectiously catchy production.

Royal & The Serpent – Phuckboi Rejects
2022 marks the fifth anniversary of Ryan Santiago‘s debut release as Royal & The Serpent. Her first real success however came in 2020, with the major label debut single Overwhelmed. It would also show up on her first EP get a grip. Sophomore EP searching for nirvana followed a year later. She could also add a collaboration with The Knocks and Weezer‘s Rivers Cuomo, and a remix of Gayle‘s abcdefu to her résumé.
This year, Royal & The Serpent will release their third EP If I Died Would Anyone Care. The 6-track collection will drop on 28 January. It’ll feature most recent single I’m Not Sorry and its follow-up, the punk-rock influenced track Phuckboi Rejects.
Never the one to wear her heart on her sleeve, the latter deals with falling for the wrong guys. In Royal & The Serpent’s own words: “We’ve all got a type. Deny it if you want but we like what we like. I just happen to like heart-breaking, vape-puffing, chain-wearing rejects. This particular breed of ‘phuckboi’ is what got me into this whole mess in the first place.”
