Zara Larsson, the 28-year-old Swedish pop sensation, is taking the music world by storm with her album 'Midnight Sun'. With three songs in the US Hot 100 and fourth biggest female artist on global Spotify, Larsson's career is moving at lightning speed. Larsson's journey to stardom began at 16 with her debut single 'Uncover'. However, it was her zeitgeist-hijacking album 'Midnight Sun' that reinvented her as a rave nymph, blending brash electro-pop and drum’n’bass. The album's success can be attributed to its genuine youthfulness, ultra-fun, and uber-femme vibe, which has resonated with fans worldwide. Larsson's lyrics have the immediacy of a voice note sent to a crush, and she is startlingly frank about her insecurities. Her music is a reflection of her unapologetic camp and accessible twist, making her a standout in the industry. Larsson has always been vocal about sex positivity, women's rights, and her support of Palestine. She declined to perform at Eurovision's halftime show in protest at Israel's inclusion and lost a $3m brand deal after joking about abortion on social media. Despite the challenges of fame, Larsson thrives on attention and sees her current hot streak as an opportunity to build and create. With her deluxe edition of 'Midnight Sun' coming soon, Larsson is set to take the music world by storm.
