Kali Uchis, the Colombian bubblegum-popper/part-time soulstress with a lovably Latin accent and occasional lush, Lykke Li vocal resemblance just released a new single, “Lottery”, via SoundCloud earlier today. Lightheaded and ringing with wedding bells, [literally], the fluttery track fans out the singer’s exaggeratingly girl-ified ‘oohs’ while a kittenish hook relays her message about second chances and other lovey-dovey weakness: (“Can you…take this chance on me? Love is like the lottery/ Know we had some issues, Can we dismiss those?…”).
Lyrical? No. Overly cutesy? Maybe. Regardless, its dream-pop charm will stick like pink goop in your ears.
You can expect Uchis’ Por Vida EP soon; check out “Lottery” below:
