Oh my God: Carly Rae Jepsen, born Carly Raemmaculate Jepselegend of the North, has already returned to us with something new, just a few months after the release of her last studio album, Dedicated.
“OMG” – which, spoiler alert, is not a cover of the Usher song – is Carly’s collabo released on Wednesday (July 31) with 31-year-old LA-based producer Gryffin, and serves as the latest offering from his forthcoming debut, Gravity.
The song’s about when you’re in like with someone, but then you’re like: wait, am I in love? OMG.
“Oh my god, I think I might love you / ‘Cause I only liked a lot of things before I knew the way I love it when you touch me now…”
In typical Carly fashion, it’s a swoon-y, earnest and E•MO•TIONal offering – essentially the heart eyes emoji in song form, backed by springy, bop-able beats that build up and drop in a way that would likely go down well with an EDM festival-leaning crowd.
“’OMG’ was one of the most fun experiences I’ve ever had in making a record. Getting to work with Carly Rae Jepsen was such an honor as I’ve been a big fan of her work for a long time and I’m so happy with how the track seamlessly blends both of our styles. I hope everybody loves it as much as we do and feels the fun, summery energy of the record,” Gryffin says.
“Gryffin is a kindred spirit in the way he thinks about music, I’m grateful to be a part of this song,” Carly says.
CRJ is here for U now with “OMG,” bb. TTYL.
