How To Sing For Money
Alt-pop dynamo Maggie Andrew is back with her latest single, “How to Sing for Money,” a vibrant, emotionally charged track that blends infectious energy with biting commentary. Released alongside a striking music video, the song showcases Maggie’s signature style: bold hooks, razor-sharp lyrics, and innovative production that pushes the boundaries of pop music.
“How to Sing for Money” is a masterclass in irony and authenticity. Over a pulsating beat and soaring ‘80s-inspired guitar riffs, Maggie’s syrupy pop melodies deliver a tongue-in-cheek take on the music industry’s tendency to commodify pain. The lyrics peel back the curtain on the emotional cost of stardom, while cleverly addressing a personal heartbreak.
In a subversive twist, Maggie offers to teach her heartbreaker how to turn their shared pain into profit, spotlighting the cyclical absurdity of transforming raw emotion into chart-topping hits. The result is a track that’s as irresistible as it is incisive, proving Maggie’s knack for balancing wit with vulnerability.
