Toronto–based songstress Sam Casey wears her authenticity with pride. 7 Second Superstar is rich in lyrical content. The song examines what TikTok does with creators. It comes off as judgmental because it is.
7 Second Superstar was written over Zoom during TikTok’s heyday in 2021, when Sam and her co-writers Julianna Eye and Chloe Kay were forced to participate on the app. After discussing their experiences in the early 2000s and late 90s (before social media existed), they decided to try the blink-182 vibe, and about 2 hours later they had a song
7 Second Superstar features quirky alt-pop instrumentation led by guitar. The vocals give the song’s message extra weight. I appreciate how the chorus unfolds and tries to immerse you completely.
Casey makes nothing but great music. 7 Second Superstar impresses on all fronts. Start streaming below!
