Then after a hiatus, Gomez returned in full force, with the stunning balled ‘Lose You To Love Me’, followed by the infectious dance-pop track ‘Look At Her Now’. While her dance hits continue, Gomez reminded us of her knack for earnest pop with ‘Back To You’ off the soundtrack for the teen drama she executive produces, 13 Reasons Why. While most of her rebellious moments were saved for her acting roles, she’s taken a promising creative turn on her light-hearted, insanely-catchy, ‘Bad Liar’ that samples The Talking Heads ‘Psycho Killer’ and her dance-pop collaborations with Kygo on ‘It Aint Me’ and more recently with the producer Marshmello on her single, ‘ Wolves’. While initially starting out with a band, it wasn’t until her 2013 solo debut Stars Dance, where she made the complete transition from bubbly teen to mature female artist who invited the world to ‘Come & Get It’ on her Bollywood-inflected track.

Even at 25 years young, she’s a veteran of the industry and was named Billboard‘s Woman of the Year in 2017.

Now on her sophomore effort The Pains Of Growing, the 21 year-old has matured from ingénue to confident singer-songwriter.Īs the singers of today continue to shift further away from the power belters of the 90s and late 2000s, Cara is part of the new breed of pop stars, who position themselves as outsiders, filter their confessional lyrics through slick productions and don’t paint themselves into a genre corner.Īnother progeny of the Disney star-marking machine, Selena Gomez was part of the wave of child stars turned pop singers along with Demi Lovato, Jonas Brothers, Miley Cyrus and the Nickelodeon star turned pop sensation Ariana Grande. Tapping into the desire for more socially-conscious pop, Cara took it one step further when she appeared on rapper Logic’s track ‘1-80’ along with pop-R&B star Khalid, which is titled after the number for the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline. The single was a slow burn, released without fanfare and later topping every critic’s list by the end of 2015, with the rest of her album Know-It-All being solidified by the two subsequent singles, ‘Wild Things’ and the self-affirming anthem ‘Scars to Your Beautiful’.

It was the perfect single, with Cara’s personal sentiments that rang true to insecure teenagers everywhere set to a downtempo beat and the seductive strings of ‘Ike’s Rap II’ by Isaac Hayes. Like so many singers of her generation, the 20 year-old Canadian artist got her start singing precocious covers of hit songs on Youtube before signing with Def Jam and releasing her debut single ‘Here’, a catchy ode to introverts who hate parties.
