I’m Lola Young, a South London girl with a big mouth and an even bigger love for making music. At 23, I’ve been lucky enough to create songs that speak to people on a global scale, blending the chaos of heartbreak, self-discovery, and everything in between into sounds that feel real and unapologetically me.

My official debut album, This Wasn’t Meant For You Anyway, is all about raw emotion—love, rage, humor, and finding myself. It’s not just pop music; it’s a mix of everything I’ve ever loved, from hip-hop and indie to art-pop and grunge. Working with incredible producers like Jared Solomon (Solomonophonic), Conor Dickinson, and even SZA, I spent six months crafting these songs, pouring my life into every lyric. Tracks like “Don’t Hate Me” and “Conceited” have gone viral, connecting with people in ways I couldn’t have imagined.

I started out young, writing songs at 11 and performing in open mic nights around London. The Brit School gave me some grounding, but it’s the years of gigging in pubs and finding my sound that really shaped me. Since signing to Island at 18, I’ve released EPs, gone viral on TikTok (shoutout to my best mate Lily West for filming those DIY vids), and gained a fan base that includes Madonna—still can’t believe that one!

My music is rooted in real life: messy relationships, mental health struggles, the highs and lows of being young and figuring it all out. I grew up listening to legends like Joni Mitchell, Fleetwood Mac, and Prince, but I’ve always found my own way. I think that’s why my songs resonate—they’re brutally honest, sometimes funny, and always true to me.

With a sold-out U.S. tour and This Wasn’t Meant For You Anyway finally out there, I’m ready for whatever comes next. Fame is scary, sure, but I just want people to relate to what I’m saying. If my songs make someone feel a little less alone, then I know I’m doing something right.
