Sohodolls invite you to join their cult with new unashamedly pop single, ‘My Religion’!

Published

on

Sohodolls are back with a bang for 2025 with their infectious new banger ‘My Religion’. The track is about a journey through obsession. It’s an indulgent pop song unashamedly inspired by brazen noughties pop like Eminem, Britney Spears and even Ginuwine. However, anything ‘pop’ going through the Sohodolls mincer machine will always come out darker with unhinged synths, especially when it’s produced by Grammy-nominated Dimitri Tikovoi (Charli XCX, Black Honey, Becky Hill) who also produced Sohodolls’ third biggest track ‘Mayday’. 

On the high-energy track, Sohodolls’ Maya von Doll says, “I had been intrigued by the almost comedic arrogance of some 90s & noughties pop and RnB songs. I thought it might be fun to try to sing like I was a player. So ‘My Religion’ is as bold as I can get, and it was super fun trying it. I made sure I kept my British accent in the rap section though it was hard as I had always sung along to American rap.” 

‘My Religion’ continues an exciting new era for Sohodolls, juxtaposing catchy pop tendencies with the band’s trademark seductive electronic darkness, as they limber up to launch their long-awaited new album this year. The potent track is a brand-new alt-pop anthem for 2025 that invites listeners to convert to the Sohodolls cult; a movement that celebrates the misfits and those who don’t conform to societal norms. The power of this loyal fanbase so far has helped the band recently climb up the viral Billboard charts after Madonna’s daughter kickstarted interest in the band by dancing to one of their 00’s releases on TikTok.

With ‘My Religion’, we again see Sohodolls combining top quality production, stunning songwriting and an effortlessly cool delivery for maximum earworm power. It’s the type of work, dripping in graphic melodrama, that has seen Sohodolls recently featured in Netflix’s top 10 series ‘Geek Girl’ with their song ‘Bad’, plus a slew of new press and radio love from the likes of BBC Radio 1’s Nels Hylton, Absolute Radio’s Frank Skinner and Atwood Magazine to name a few.

Dios Negasi + Tone Fultz drop “What It Is” single ft. Skrillz Dior

Published

When the “Iron City” links up with Los Angeles no weak emcees are safe!  Dropping today is Iron Angeles, the eleven track LP that combines Reagan Era Records lynchpin Dios Negasi on rhymes with production from Pittsburgh’s Tone Fultz.  First single “What It Is” (also featuring a verse from Reagan Era’s Skrillz Dior) is hard-as-nails, head-nodding boom-bap greatness.  As the producer states “though the Steel City is a cloudy and dark place and Los Angeles is known for its sunny weather, the two have a long history of creating legendary music together including Mel-Man and Sam Sneed’s work with Dr. Dre and Bud’Da’s producing ‘Bow Down’ for Westside Connection.”  This extends to the album voice-over which makes the project feel like a long-lost blaxploitation action flick of the grimiest proportions.

While Dios Negasi is known for producing his own tracks (including the recent single “Domingre Gang” featuring Young Zee) and Tone Fultz also rocks the mic in his alter-ego Messiah Of Madness, both artists stick to one role here.  As Tone relates, “Dios and I have been like brothers over the past few years.  I come to Los Angeles regularly to dig records, and he mentioned he was slowing down on production to focus more on rhyming.  Meanwhile I was in a producer zone so I started cooking up beats specifically for this project.  I came to visit when a bunch of tracks and as we cooked up in the studio, members of Reagan Era came through and it was a totally organic process.”
