New York-based DJ & Electro pop artist Loli Lux is someone you should know. Actually, she’s probably already somebody you have heard. Lady Gaga‘s new RedOne-produced single, “Judas” uses the very same hook heard on Lux’s single “WannaBE 2011” and it doesn’t sound like it’s a coincidence. Lux apparently contacted producer RedOne through an acquaintance and sent him her track. {SOURCE} Hmm…
While “Judas” is certainly growing on me, “WannaBE” is infinitely more catchy in my opinion. Love Gaga but there’s something infectious about Loli Lux. She oozes with a kind of Bille Piper-as-a-pop-star sexuality that I haven’t really seen since…well, Billie Piper was a pop star. While Lux may be channeling Billie Piper physically, the track itself is a far cry from the 90s/2000s pop that marked Piper’s career. “WannaBE 2011” is total SPACE DISCO. Written and produced by Lux and Rob Uncles in 2009, the song was released and remixed in September of last year by LoliLand Inc, with the uber-sexy video receiving heavy promotion on MTV and all over the charts in the Ukraine. With the single out in other parts of the world, Loli Lux is ready to unleash it in the UK.
Lux’s iTunes podcast has reached nearly 5,000 downloads of mixes per day and her website gets between 9,000 and 20,000 daily visitors, which is pretty impressive considering that she’s relatively unknown. Sure, she has a following as she’s performed all over the U.S. and the world at such clubs as Avalon, Ruby Skye (San Francisco), Love Parade, Lizzard Lounge (Dallas), Sound Bar (Chicago) and PURE (Las Vegas). Lux has also graced magazine covers and billboards worldwide, even appearing in an AXE Body Spray commercial and as an extra in an episode of HBO‘s hit series Entourage. Not only is Loli Lux a multi-talented artist, but she’s also a successful entrepreneur. LoliLand Inc. is a record label, a clothing line and much more! In the past LoliLand Inc. has released music from up & comers including AC Slater, Trash Yourself, Nick Supply and more. While Loli Lux appears to have several back up career plans in place, I think it’s safe to say that she’ll be a fierce and fabulous club queen for a long time to come. “WannaBe 2011” is only the beginning!
