This is just the beginning. OPULENCE marks Brooke’s first official single. Everything up until this point has been just one long teaser. Tracks, videos, cameo appearances, Diesel campaigns, runway shows were just the foundation for someone that clearly has the potential to become an alt-pop superstar. If alignment is anything to go by, the video for Opulence which drops this week is directed by Steven Klein (yeah, I know) with art direction/styling and a lot more by Nicola Formichetti. The track itself was co-written by Jesse Saint James, Sia (who is Exec Producer on the album) and Brooke herself – it first premiered live at the Diesel Venice show last week and officially landed on iTunes today in HQ – and holy shit it is repeat-worthy good.
LA-based music mogul in the making Jesse Saint John told me, “OPULENCE is like a modern day VOGUE. Referencing the underground drag culture we idolized and ended up coming up in. It’s a fun sexy urban song that taps a nerve in all of us. We all wanna feel overly glamorous and decadent at times. It’s an amazing introduction to Brooke Candy, the world is hungry for a girl like her, strong and iconic with an actual message.”
