Folly Rae - Sniper

Explosive from the very beginning, ‘Sniper’ by Folly Rae is a dynamic pop gem.

You never know what to expect from a third single especially when released a year after the sophomore ‘U’, but ‘Sniper’ takes the best of both of Folly Rae’s previous releases to creative a fun, yet menacing thrill of a song. Inspired heavily by Sia, elements of both her mellow and bubbly deranged ‘Sunday’ and anger pop ballad ‘Sweet Design’ are present. ‘Sniper’ is also reminiscent of M.I.A.’s ‘Paper Planes’ in it’s fun inspired sampling.

Folly Rae has beautifully incorporated a variety of musical elements which explode in almost an electropop chorale moment; infusing synthetics, a killer beat and a funky fresh take on sampling. I can’t wait for where Folly Rae takes aim from here!
