Rising singer Lola Young has unveiled their new single “Fake” today.
The song, which can be heard below, was produced by Paul Epworth (Paul McCartney, Beck, Adele). Young said this about the new cut:
“‘FAKE’’ is a song about remembering the core of who you are. There is so much constantly being sold to us, so much that is trying to tell us who to be, whether it’s an advert or person on the street. How would we be if we ignored it all? When writing this song I was trying to drown out all the noise, it’s about remembering that everything other than what you personally believe isn’t the truth and to listen to your instinct about what’s fake. I hope whoever hears this relates and feels a sense of empowerment towards anything or anyone that has made them feel inadequate in their life.”
Young will have their U.S. television debut on tonight’s episode of The Late Late Show With James Corden. “Fake” is available on digital services right now. Last month, Young unveiled their After Midnight EP, which is out on Capitol Records.
