There are those rare songs, those rare transcendent moments when listening to a hook that you can instantly tell: this song is bound to be a smash. My first experience with StaySolidRocky's "Party Girl" came about when compiling songs for our weekly playlist , a process that requires sifting through hundreds, if not more, new releases every Friday.
Originally self-released but now finding its time in the sun thanks to a recent signing with Columbia Records, "Party Girl" instantly stuck out amongst those hundreds of songs. Not because it was wildly inventive or felt like an instant Pitchfork 10, but the slurred opening nod to Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Want To Have Fun" and the hook reminiscent of Aqua's "Barbie Girl," brought an instantaneous smile to my face.
Yet, like anyone who writes about music can attest, finding the time to cover every song is a fool's errand. While indulging in one of my girlfriend and I's favorite quarantine pastimes - which comprises of us lying prone on opposite sides of the couch while I play Animal Crossing and she scrolls through TikTok - I heard the familiar hook emanate from her side of the couch.
TikTok had spoken; "Party Girl" had found its audience. As of the time of writing this article, over 1. And it's not hard to see why. Well, that all lies in the hands of the platform's over a billion users.
