The vocalist/DJ Blane Muise came of age in the South London club scene before debuting as Shygirl in 2016. In the years to follow, her bawdy blend of pop, rap, and forward-thinking electronics became beloved by club kids worldwide, though as her profile had risen, she’d admittedly grown disengaged from the scene herself. Her first Club Shy EP, released in February 2024, was a conscious return to the dance floor, with 15 euphoric minutes of pure serotonin release. A year later, Club Shy Room 2 plays out like an after-party that finds Shygirl leaning further into her hip-hop and grime influences alongside a formidable girl gang. That includes reggaetón maverick Isabella Lovestory, R&B luminary Jorja Smith, and the California rapper Saweetie, who makes herself at home on the raunchy “Immaculate,” which the pair debuted last year on Charli xcx and Troye Sivan’s Sweat Tour. Indeed, in a post-Brat landscape, the intersection of pop and club music feels as vital as ever, but Shygirl’s been about this life.
