4, 3, 2, 1! On episode 27 of DTWN I’m joined by rapper, DJ, and producer, Princess Superstar, whose song Perfect (Exceeder) is going viral on TikTok, Spotify playlists, and on the dance floor. We talk about the use of her song in the film Saltburn, her beginnings as an artist, and coming up in the East Village in NYC on the precipice of the post-punk revival and electroclash scenes.
We discuss her album My Machine, her first hit song Bad Babysitter, her use of humour, and the saga regarding the music video and tour for her song Perfect. Princess Superstar also talks about working with key figures in the scene such as DJ Hell, Larry Tee, and Miss Kittin, as well as her strategy for handling writer's block and staying creative.
Also, Princess Superstar is now on the Billboard dance charts at number 12 - a first for her career!
PS. check out her daughter Siren Ortega’s music on Spotify!
