A Pop Power Play With Bite
Published
Just a Girl
Molly Stone
On her latest single, rising London artist Molly Stone takes a familiar phrase and flips it on its head. “Just a Girl” isn’t a lament — it’s a warning. Backed by producer REYA’s glossy, propulsive production, Stone delivers a razor-sharp pop anthem that skewers gender double standards with a wink and a grin.
Co-written in LA with Leve, the track marries lyrical wit with big melodic hooks — think Taylor Swift’s precision meets Lily Allen’s playful provocation. “You’re the one being played for a change,” she teases, turning objectification into ammunition.
Smart, self-aware, and effortlessly addictive, “Just a Girl” cements Molly Stone as one of the UK’s most exciting emerging voices — an artist rewriting the rules of what pop empowerment can sound like in 2025.
