![]() I have too much going on that I need to get out!” I know a lot of people sometimes will write from other views, but that’s not my vibe. It’s obviously something I’ve been crafting for a while now I’m always writing from a personal experience. ![]() ![]() ![]() “I think I’ve had a pretty distinct writing style since the beginning. “I’ve always pretty much said exactly what I want and how I feel,” Remi says. From Billy Bob Thornton and Angelina Jolie references on ‘Sexy Villain’, to an “orgy at Five Guys with five guys” in ‘Quiet On Set’, back to shouting out Red Hot Chili Peppers’ frontman Anthony Kiedis on the aptly-titled ‘Anthony Kiedis’, you really never know what could be around the corner. Learning how to push the limits of her songwriting, the results led to the “pretty fucking crazy” tracks that decorate self-released 2019 EP ‘You’re A Dog!’, its 2020 follow-up ‘I’m Allergic To Dogs!’, and her highly-anticipated debut full-length ‘Juno’, which lands this month.Ī kaleidoscopic pop offering, ‘Juno’ dazzles from start to finish, with so many lyrics designed to stop you in your tracks that it could give you whiplash. I had a very limited idea of what the fuck was going on when I went into college, but I came out of it like my world had just been so broken open.”Īnd it’s these early, all-consuming forays that helped Remi hone the lyrically-wild funk-pop sound that’s now become her trademark. And we were just jamming for like, six hours a day in our living room! I think that, as much as we were kind of just like fucking degenerates, I also learned a lot through that house and I found that it just really expanded my mind. “I was meeting people through all these parties we were having, and I was writing songs with all my roommates all the time. “We were non-stop partying for three years, but also non-stop writing music and hosting shows,” she recalls. Residing in a “bit of a trap house” with 11 other people studying alongside her, she would spend her days surrounded by people living and breathing music for the first time. It was upon heading to LA’s USC Thornton School of Music in 2014, however, that Remi’s journey to the fully-fledged technicolour pop star we see before us today truly began. Before that it was pretty much just our parents being like, ‘Good job, girls!’” And I was like, holy shit, this is a career! That’s where it kind of clicked for me that maybe people liked my voice and what we were doing. We made, like, $180, which at the time was unfathomable. “We were performing on a street corner at this art fair and were out there for two hours. “We would busk on the street, and I think that was the moment where I really started to think that I could do it as a career,” Remi recalls. Raised in California, Remi first got the music bug after she created a pre-teen girl group called Citrus with two of her friends, which went onto become a slightly more serious (and less fruit based) production during high school. But then, it’s also not too often that you find a pop star like Remi Wolf. “If my mouth is saying something, like a syllable or consonant, I will follow what my body wants to sing before I’ll follow what my brain wants to say,” she explains.It’s not too often that you find a pop song that simultaneously references the infamous Two Girls, One Cup video, horror nightmare The Human Centipede and Chuck E Cheese within the first minute. In a recent interview with Consequence, Wolf shared that she has a tendency to create very organically, following her body more than her brain. Juno, her debut full-length album, is an odyssey through a world of oddities. Active social media users probably heard her track “Photo ID” on TikTok, but Wolf’s budding discography is much more than the viral hit may have suggested. She’s arrived on the indie-pop scene in a neon and rainbow-drenched burst and has become something of a festival darling over the past year. It’s not an inaccurate first impression for people who might be new to our October Artist of the Month, Remi Wolf. ![]() “Remi Wolf is a crazy bih but is also hella nice and sweet sometimes but also likes to yell at people but has figured out that maybe instead of yelling at people she can just sing.” This is the description that greets users who visit Remi Wolf’s official Spotify artist page. ![]()
