Wallice delivers second EP title-track "90s American Superstar"
Wallice has unveiled new song "90s American Superstar", the title-track from her second EP landing next month.
"90s American Superstar" is Wallice's first outing since February's "Little League", and is the title-track of Wallice's second EP.
Wallice says of the track, which is teamed with a video shot by Nicole Busch, ""90s American Superstar" is about a fictional relationship in which my partner is showing very LA ‘dating a musician’ type behaviour. It’s kind of a part two to the saga from a track on my last EP called "Hey Michael". The chorus makes it sort of a breakup song, and the verses make it a diss track. The first verse has six 90s movie references, and looks inwards at a breakup and what I did wrong. The second verse is blaming the other person - so it’s kind of a rollercoaster of emotions. The chorus is very lighthearted, and I think the tone of the “la la la’s” is important in showing a devil-may-care attitude - not knowing what to feel or do and just going with it."
90s American Superstar will follow Wallice's 2021 debut EP Off the Rails, and was written and recorded at Wallice's Grandparents house in Southern Utah.
"The EP is a hypothetical look into the celebrity life that lots of musicians and the LA entertainment industry crowd seeks," Wallice explains. "It's fun to think about, "what if I was famous?" and how fame can change people. Especially since I grew up in LA - I love it here, but it's a strange place and it can feel like everyone is just looking for their big break. To me, the EP plays with that perspective and the way people think about that dream. By exploring the idea of fame, I think the EP is a fun way of saying everyone is human. We all have aspirations, bad qualities and egos, but even if you’re famous (which by the way– I'm not in any way), that doesn’t make you better or worse than someone who isn’t. I want people to have fun listening to this EP, and be inspired to make music that they want to listen to, not just what they think others want to hear."
