bulow: Get Stupid

By Kerry Doole

bülow - Get Stupid ( Wax Records). The young Juno-winning and platinum-selling electro-pop artist has just released a music video for her newest single, Get Stupid.


The track features her understated yet fluent vocals atop some rhythmic synth lines. Lyrically, the tune outlines some decidedly foolish behaviour: "DIY bongs in the bathroom. She shot gun kissing a frat boy in the bathtub, He bad news."

The track is off bulow's latest EP Crystalline, released earlier this year, and was produced by Mike Wise, who produced several songs on the EP. When discussing the accompanying video for the song whose concept was envisioned by the singer herself, bülow commented in a press release that "when I was younger, I wanted to be an inventor, to create things. I think everybody strives for the feeling of self-importance, trying to find their ways to be remembered. My character created a flying device, it didn’t work out, but that wasn’t the end.”

On the cusp of 20, bülow scored big-time with her debut EPs Damaged Vol. 1 and Damaged Vol. 2, which included the multi-platinum selling hit Not A Love Song that has generated over 50 million streams worldwide.

A child of the globe, Megan Bülow has grown up in five countries, including Canada, Germany, the UK, the US, and recently graduated from high-school in The Netherlands. Her global presence won her the Roots ‘Sweat Style’ Fall 2018 campaign, as well as features in both Vogue UK and Billboard (to name a few). bülow’s shows include a US tour with Fickle Friends and the iHeart Radio Jingle Ball in Toronto alongside the Chainsmokers, Dua Lipa, Alessia Cara, and more.

She plays Osheaga in Montreal on Aug. 3 and Lollapalooza in Chicago, Aug. 4. US dates follow in October.
