Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers: North America 2025

The Drake

Devon Cole

Very few can ace an assignment like Devon Cole. While righting the lyrical wrongs of &ldquo;Blurred Lines,&rdquo; Cole&rsquo;s remix went viral. To comfort a Love is Blind reality star post-onscreen heartbreak, Cole offered an &ldquo;in awe&rdquo; Deepti Vempati an empowerment anthem. Even during her three-hour, Tuesday night set at a local Toronto watering hole, newfound fans clamored for original music. Soon, she&rsquo;d deliver &mdash; the singer-songwriter&rsquo;s 2021 alt-pop project, Party For One, accruing tastemaker approval and millions of streams in mere months. &ldquo;If anybody, even one person, finds solace in my music, if it lifts them up even a little bit, then I will have done my job,&rdquo; the 24-year-old says. &ldquo;That&rsquo;s all I can ask for.&rdquo; The secret to Cole&rsquo;s CBC-acclaimed &ldquo;earworm pop with a feminist edge,&rdquo; lies in her clinical approach to songwriting. The psychology graduate's Arista Records debut, &ldquo;W.I.T.C.H&rdquo; (&ldquo;Woman in Total Control of Herself&rdquo;) was the product of weeks of research: deep dives into the history of witchcraft, along with unending reruns of Sabrina the Teenage Witch. After Cole shared snippets of the funk-flavored, Trojan horse-esque track, &ldquo;W.I.T.C.H&rdquo; secured 300,000 pre-saves &mdash; quadrupling her following in the process. For a Calgary-native whose musical education mostly consisted of show choirs and rodeo appearances, Cole&rsquo;s &nbsp;superior sonic instincts or sheer lyrical prowess is unprecedented. Catchily packaging social truths in repeat worthy pop bops, Devon Cole is a woman in total control &mdash; and always understands the assignment. Have an MRG Credit/Gift Card?
