British rapper Shygirl's ALIAS reissue hit like a neon slap in 2020's dead (it was COVID, remember?) club scene. Oily bass, glimmering synths and her buttery-soft voice cutting through with venomous precision make every track a masterclass in chaotic seduction. It's vulgar, it's playful and it's unapologetically hers with no romance, just raw, self-indulgent energy. From the slithering trap of 'Slime' to the blunt, hilarious 'She came to fuck' moment, Shygirl perfectly conjures sweaty, hedonistic nightlife that means every listen feels like being in a room where the lights flash with your heartbeat. Pure party culture distilled into art.
