Lil Nas X

This time last year, Lil Nas X had been living with his sister after dropping out of college. His life turned upside down after his breakout hit “Old Town Road” broke new grounds by spending 19 consecutive weeks on the top spot of Billboard Hot 100.

Lizzo

It’s really a shame that it took this long for the world to discover Lizzo since her biggest hits came out years ago. Her time to shine is finally here, and her journey to the top of the charts is truly inspiring.

Megan Thee Stallion

Megan Thee Stallion gave us one of the catchiest songs (and most popular hashtags) of the year with “Hot Girl Summer” and we’re looking forward to seeing what she’s going to do next.

Ava Max

Ava Max dropped one of the biggest radio hits of the year with “Sweet but Psycho” and her singles “So Am I” and “Torn” have proven she’s no one-hit-wonder.

Summer Walker

Summer Walker’s debut album Over It peaked at no. 2 on Billboard 200 chart, and her hit single “Playing Games” is the sign of bigger things to come.

Max shot this highly elaborate video in Milan, with Joseph Kahn serving as a director, and used it to explore the complex relationship between love and hate.

“Shooting the ‘Torn’ music video was a dream come true. I got to travel all over Milan as a superhero confronting my cheating husband. I want women to know all around the world that they have the power!” said Max in a press release.

Max premiered the song during her recent performance at the MTV Video Music Awards where she mashed it up with her breakout hit “Sweet but Psycho”. She attended the ceremony wearing the same superhero outfit she can be seen rocking in her new music video.

Wango Tango will take place at the Dignity Health Sports Park on June 1, and it will definitely be a night to remember. The list of performers at the pop bonanza also features the likes of Zedd, Ally Brooke, Tyga, and Ava Max.

John Ivey, president of programming strategies at iHeartMedia, described this festival as one of Los Angeles’s must-see events and said they’re delighted to bring it back for another unforgettable evening.

“We look forward to bringing this iconic event to music fans nationwide through our continued relationship with Freeform as our television partner, and through our live broadcast on iHeartRadio stations and stream on LiveXLive,” said Ivey in a press release.

Max hasn’t been around for long, but she’s already been compared to some of the biggest pop sensations in the world, including Lady Gaga and Katy Perry. People also drew a comparison between Max and Dua Lipa, Bebe Rexha and Rita Ora, because they all happen to have Albanian roots.

There’s no need to put this rising star in the box and call her “the next Lady Gaga” since she’s obviously doing her own thing. She already has a unique style and knows exactly what she wants to do with her music from this point on.

The success of “Sweet But Psycho” did take her by surprise, because it rarely happens that a completely unknown artist becomes an overnight sensation. Ava Max is doing everything in her power to seize this moment – her debut album is underway and she already picked the next two singles. Let’s hope they’ll show the world that she’s no one-hit wonder.
