Blog 27's Post-Everything Polish Pop


I'm at a point right now where songs that smoosh different types of pop together—like Blog 27's new single "Cute (I'm Not Cute)," which not only brings together a beat that sounds like it was lifted from a Blow record, a sorta generic guitar-pogo chorus, and a rap break, it spells out "LOL" in its lyrics—aren't exactly breaking my brain, but they are causing it to bend a bit. The new single from the Polish group, which used to be fronted by a pair of teenagers, but now has 15-year-old Tola Szlagowska as its lone frontwoman, sounds a little bit thin coming out of my laptop's sorta-fried speakers. But the brazenness of this track's whirl through the pop radio dial has made me interested enough to go through their Wikipedia page's entire history, in an effort to see why they were so "controversial" two years back.
