Persian-Native American pop act Chloe Star returns with her new single and video, “Straight Girls,” out on all streaming platforms today.

Following her empowering debut release “Element,” Chloe’s second single, “Straight Girls,” is a high energy anthem packed with infectious trap-inspired beats and electro-pop vocals. “The song is about exploring my own sexuality,” says Chloe “I don’t know what it is, but I always find myself dating quote on quote straight girls.” The pairing music video, which was directedby Carlos “Bawwse” (Kali Uchis, Justin Bieber, Emotional Oranges) and Emilio Sanchez (Becky G, 21 Savage), is a sexy and fun-filled visual that further expands the Chloe Star universe.

Chloe Star is an indigenous singer, songwriter, visual artist and tribal advocate. Growing up she split her time between Los Angeles and her family’s reservation in San Bernardino. With a childhood that was chaotic and often unstable, she found solace in journaling and writing poetry. She taught herself to play piano and guitar and soon started transforming her prose into lyrics.

After spending the past few years finding and cultivating her sound, Chloe is now ready to make her introduction to the world. “Element” and “Straight Girls” will be included on her forthcoming EP due out later this year.

Rising artist Pilar Victoria is known for blending upbeat pop with melancholic undertones. Her latest single, “Headphones”, is here, and it’s a melodic journey through love and loss that’s bound to resonate with anyone who’s ever faced heartbreak.

Pilar Victoria, who grew up in Argentina and now calls Texas home, has a unique multicultural background that seeps into every note she sings. Her music is a beautiful tapestry of soulful melodies and deeply personal lyrics, reflecting her rich heritage and diverse experiences.

Her musical journey started young. Pilar Victoria was writing songs and playing instruments by the age of 11. Despite strict restrictions on social media usage, her passion couldn’t be contained. She began posting snippets of her music on TikTok, quickly gaining a loyal following. “I wasn’t allowed to be on social media growing up, but I decided to be anyways,” Pilar Victoria reveals. “I posted small clips of my songs on TikTok and got a lot of positive attention. It led me to release music on Spotify. I even had to convince my parents to support me financially for the distributor service.”

Now, with “Headphones”, Pilar offers us her take on love and loss. The song, co-written with Nowels in Santa Monica, combines the melancholy of heartbreak with an infectious pop beat. Pilar explains, “I wrote this song during a tough time. I wanted to block out all the pain and intense emotions I was feeling, and putting on headphones became a metaphor for tuning out the world and being alone with my thoughts.”
