Lil Lotus has unveiled a new pop punk collaboration with Sophie Powers – ‘When Life Gives You Lemons’.
Produced by Matt Malpass (Blink-182, Machine Gun Kelly), Lotus said of the track “I wanted to write a song about how it feels to be caught up in a relationship where you’re constantly playing the blame game with each other instead of actually communicating. Adding Sophie in made it really upbeat and fun, so I thought it would be a cute twist on a negative situation.“

On working with Lil Lotus, Sophie said “I knew I wanted to be a part of the song the second I heard Lotus’s catchy hook. His vulnerability is commendable, although there are two sides to every story. I enjoyed writing from the perspective of the heartbreaker, as I’ve often found myself in that position. It doesn’t feel good either. People on the receiving end often forget that. It’s totally understandable, although we shouldn’t villainise someone for simply wanting to move on. The music video is ironic in that sense, as we are visually calling out societal norms. I am literally dressed as a villain. So glad Lotus and I came together for this track. He’s so talented!”
Lil Lotus is currently in the middle of a European tour and will play at London’s Boston Music Room on June 30.
