Alma has just announced her second UK single (presumably her first US single) "Phases". It features French Montana and will be out tomorrow. It was written with Charli XCX (who also directed the video), Noonie Bao, Sasha Sloan and Charlie Handsome.

I can't wait to hear this, "Chasing Highs" was a slow burner for me but I really love it now. I'm so glad Charli is involved too, I love seeing their interactions on Instagram.

Alma is more pop than dance, so she should stay here imo.

Although this will almost certainly be urban not pop or dance with French Montana involved of course!

I like Alma's eyes in the cover art!

I really like it but I think unfortunately for her, its success is going to be limited as "Hurtin' Me" has just started to smash for French/Stefflon. It's #157 on iTunes :/ "Chasing Highs" is still top 40 officially though so I think it has time.

Every single song I've heard of hers has been so painfully generic and dull. :/

this doesn't sound as good as Chasing Highs so I'm not so sure about the hit potential of it.

Not on her official YouTube yet because why would you actually want people to hear your music? So expect this to be taken down:


Oh she's doing the Drake rule (Get it Together from his album still not on youtube laugh.gif) I see to boost spotify streams!

Are we all agreed now that ALMA stays in Pop in future?

This song is actually a bit dancier than the last two and is actually less generic than her last two, less tropical pop.

Not as good in terms of the vocal as 'Chasing Highs' but I prefer the instrumental in this one.

The best thing about it is still Alma's eyes in the single art imo. laugh.gif

Music video premieres tomorrow! This charted in the top 100 on release but hasn't done anything since 😕 so hopefully this'll help it.

I've moved her other topics to pop (soz Lewis) as she is primarily a pop artist.

Can`t say "Phases" is bad, but her previous works was much better.

Yeah, I agree with this. It's not bad by any means, but it's so nondescript and I've got absolutely no desire to return to it unlike her previous releases. It's a shame, because 'Chasing Highs' and her Sub Focus collab are among my favourite tracks this year.
