Gypsy pop princess, silly girl and longtime MuuMuse favorite Neon Hitch has been chewing ’em up and spitting ’em out on killer cuts like “Bad Dog” and “Fuck U Betta” for months, but now, she’s about to show off her sweet side.
“Gold” is Hitch’s second single from her long, long, long awaited debut LP, Beg, Borrow and Steal. Co-scribed by melody maven Bruno Mars and featuring a verse from rapper Tyga, the sparkling midtempo–colored by a blazing synthesized pulse and soaring strings–shows off Neon’s lovely chops, as well as her knack for an endlessly catchy hook or three. “There’s no light in this room/It’s alright, we got you/You shine like go-o-o-o-old!” Hitch lovingly croons to her luminous lover.
This “Gold” is precious, with just the right amount of edge–just like the stunning songstress herself!
Make sure to watch the equally amazing lyric video below, which features Neon painting her way through her gorgeous new single, line by line. It’s so well done! Just watch where those words go…things get a bit cheeky.
And while you’re at it, be sure to catch Neon singing tonight on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon!
“Gold (feat. Tyga)” was released on August 16. (iTunes)
