Cyrus’ ‘Plastic Hearts’ was given a four-star review from NME upon its release. The review said that the record “finds the pop-star-turned-rock-star going hell for leather – and when Miley Cyrus is at full throttle, it’s an absolute blast”.
“Enlisting Joan Jett and channelling Stevie Nicks, the singer has drawn deep from her recent rock covers and done an Ashley O, reinventing herself yet again.”
As for Megan, ‘Good News’ was also given four stars from NME.
“The 25-year-old combines West Coast samples with the Southern sounds of her youth,” the review read.
Doja Cat released her second album, ‘Hot Pink’, last year. In 2020, she’s collaborated with multiple artists including Ariana Grande and Chloe x Halle.
