Poster Girl is the third studio album by Swedish singer and songwriter Zara Larsson. It was released on 5 March 2021 through TEN Music Group and Epic Records.

Poster Girl was supported by three singles: “Love Me Land”, “Wow” and “Talk About Love”, the latter featuring guest vocals from Young Thug. It also includes 2018 moderate[according to whom?] hit “Ruin My Life” and the promotional track “Look What You’ve Done”.

The album has been called a “fast-paced and symphonic”, “dance record from start to finish”, with no ballads and “’80s synths and R&B-influenced production”. Its lyrical content “explore[s] the best and worst parts of pop music’s bread and butter: love”. Also rooted in Scandipop and pop, it was additionally described as “both a break-up album and a loved-up celebration of a new romance”, as well as “weaving themes of unrequited devotion and sobering flits of romantic toxicity into near scientifically engineered pop songs”.

Tracklist:

01.Love Me Land
02.Talk About Love (Feat. Young Thug)
03.Need Someone
04.Right Here
05.Wow
06.Poster Girl
07.I Need Love

The duo consisting of Mette Mortensen (vocals, writer) and Mads Christensen (producer, writer) has finally released their debut album, ‘In Bloom’.

“We’ve spent most of 2020 in the studio finishing and finetuning our debut album. Writing, producing and mixing almost everything ourselves.” The 30-year-old producer and songwriter, Mads explains.

And there is no doubt, that the young producer and songwriting duo has been busy the last couple of years. Using both their time in the studio in Denmark, but also quite some time in LA, which ensured the meeting with CJ Baran along the way. An encounter which later should turn out to be the result of an amazing track and help from Max Martin himself on the single ‘What We Do’.

When listening to our album ‘In Bloom’, you will be invited directly into our world. It’s an album describing a long journey – including both highs and lows on a bumpy road. Some of the tracks came alive years ago, some were created last week. We’re extremely proud of the final result, crossing our fingers our existing fans will love it, and hoping to be able to invite new ones into our world, Mette explains.

Tracklist:

01.Mona Lisa
02.Am I Insane?
03.Boys Dont Make Me Cry
04.What We Do
05.M&M (interlude)
06.Polaroid Pictures
07.Passion
08.Roxanne
09.Are You Feeling It Too?
