“Brand New Chanel$”

It’s a classic pop-star rebound story, like Katy Perry receiving a text about her divorce moments before hitting the stage. Three months later, Slayyyter’s back with a new single, “Brand New Chanel$.” It’s a sequel to the prior album’s “Beat Up Chanel$,” and it’s practically a Katy Perry song. Where WOR$ST GIRL drew from electroclash, “Brand New” maximizes the mainstream pop of the 2010s, particularly Benny Blanco-assisted tracks like “Teenage Dream” and “Your Love Is My Drug.” They’re so committed that they even brought on Serban Ghenea, a mixer who’s worked on countless pop records but is particularly associated with the era Slayyyter aims to capture.
